As Generative AI Adoption Surges, AIDR Brings Deep Visibility and Robust Security Controls to AI Adoption and Deployment Across the Enterprise
Pangea, a leading provider of AI security guardrails, today announced the launch of Pangea AI Detection and Response (AIDR), a comprehensive security platform to monitor, detect, and secure GenAI across the enterprise, covering employee AI use, homegrown AI applications, AI factories, and more. The platform is available today for early access and will become generally available in September.
Pangea AIDR marks a major turning point in how organizations can defend themselves against emerging AI risks like shadow AI and sensitive data leakage to LLMs. Existing security controls leave significant AI visibility and detection gaps around threats like indirect prompt injection and excessive agency. With AIDR, security teams can shift from reactive governance to proactive AI oversight to innovate even faster.
“With GenAI we’re witnessing the fastest software adoption curve in history—but also the fastest-growing security blind spot,” said Oliver Friedrichs, Founder and CEO of Pangea. “Pangea AIDR is the first unified AI security platform to serve both security teams concerned about employee use of GenAI, and product teams to protect homegrown AI workloads. The platform fits seamlessly into existing security operation workflows and technology stacks, and is part of a larger wave of innovations we’re bringing to market to address the AI attack surface.”
Introducing Pangea AIDR
Built with Pangea’s flagship AI Guard technology at its core, Pangea AI Detection and Response employs AI sensors across a range of form factors that feed telemetry to a powerful AI policy control and threat detection engine, with alerts and logs viewable via an analyst console, and the ability to trigger automatic response and control actions.
- AI Visibility: Detects and classifies GenAI usage across browsers, apps, agents, gateways, and cloud infrastructure, tracking what tools are being used when, and how.
- Governance with a Unified Security Policy Engine: Applies consistent access and data policies across LLMs, agentic apps, shadow AI tools, and dev environments from a single control plane.
- Advanced Threat Detection: Stops prompt injection attacks, jailbreaks, data leakage, and other emerging GenAI threats using Pangea’s proprietary detection engine.
AIDR early access sensors include visibility and control for:
- Browsers: Chrome browser integration for workforce AI governance
- Agents: Agentic framework SDKs and MCP proxy for developer-built LLM agents
- Cloud: Log analysis for AWS Bedrock AI visibility
- Gateway: Protection for Kong, LiteLLM, Portkey, and similar AI gateways
- Code: Pangea SDK integration for application-level AI security
- OTEL log format ingestion for cloud-native AI observability
AIDR will be available starting July 31, 2025, with general availability on September 1. Future support (Q3 2025) will include GitHub Copilot, Microsoft Edge and additional AI touchpoints critical to enterprise workflows.
Leading the Way in AI Security
Coinciding with the AIDR launch, Pangea also announced:
- The expansion of Pangea Labs, its elite AI security research division
- New red teaming services for AI systems
- Protection for emerging threats, such as AI image injection attacks (where attackers embed malicious code in images processed by LLMs)
“Rapid AI technology adoption in the enterprise has created significant visibility challenges for security teams and introduced new threats like indirect prompt injection that can evade existing security controls,” said Sebastian Goodwin, Chief Trust Officer at Autodesk. “It is clear now that this growing AI attack surface demands its own visibility, detection and response strategy.”
Pangea is powered by a world-class research team, including Dr. James A. Hoagland, who leads the AI threat taxonomy and methodology, and Joey Melo, the only participant to escape Pangea’s 3-room prompt injection challenge. The leadership team consists of category-defining cybersecurity founders with multiple exits, including Founder and CEO Oliver Friedrichs, Co-Founder and CTO Sourabh Satish, who holds more than 260 patents, as well as, CPO Robert Truesdell.
