AI Gateway

Controlled AI Access Layer

The AI Gateway provides a secure, policy-driven layer for connecting to external and local approved approved AI provider layers. It enforces data classification rules, routes requests based on security policies, and ensures that sensitive information never leaves controlled environments.

Problem Addressed

Uncontrolled AI Provider Access

Organizations struggle to leverage AI capabilities while maintaining security and compliance. Direct access to external approved approved AI provider layers creates risks of data leakage, inconsistent policies, and lack of visibility into AI usage patterns.

1

Sensitive data may be sent to external approved approved AI provider layers without controls

2

No unified policy enforcement across different AI services

3

Lack of visibility into AI usage patterns and costs

4

Difficulty switching between approved approved AI provider layers or adding local models

5

No audit trail for AI-assisted operations

Key Capabilities

Secure AI Access Management

Provider Abstraction

Unified API layer supporting Controlled AI Provider Gateway, Controlled AI Provider Gateway, private AI runtimes, and other providers through a single interface.

Data Classification

Automatic classification of data being sent to approved approved AI provider layers with policy enforcement.

Request Routing

Intelligent routing of requests to appropriate providers based on data sensitivity and policies.

Local Model Support

Integration with locally deployed LLMs for sensitive operations that cannot use external providers.

Usage Analytics

Detailed tracking of AI usage, costs, and performance metrics.

Rate Limiting

Configurable rate limits and quotas to control AI consumption.

Workflow Example

How the AI Gateway Works

1

Request Reception

AI requests from any Sekhem module are received by the gateway.

2

Data Classification

Request content is analyzed and classified according to security policies.

3

Provider Selection

Based on classification, the appropriate approved AI provider is selected.

4

Request Processing

The request is processed by the selected provider with appropriate safeguards.

5

Response Handling

Responses are logged, filtered if necessary, and returned to the requesting module.
