Connect PartnerClassify, mask, route and audit every prompt — locally, in the cloud or hybrid. On NVIDIA-certified hardware, EU-sovereign by design.
The invisible reality
When employees paste company data into public AI, that data can train the provider's models — and resurface in answers to other users. The leak isn't a hack. It's everyday usage.
Within 20 days of allowing ChatGPT, Samsung engineers leaked proprietary code and internal meeting notes in three separate incidents. The company banned generative AI on all devices.
What leaked
Roughly half of enterprise staff already use generative AI at work — and the majority of those interactions carry real, business-critical data straight into public clouds.
Organizations with high shadow-AI usage paid on average $670,000 more per breach. One in five reported a breach directly caused by ungoverned AI tools.
Italy's data protection authority fined OpenAI €15.6 million for unlawful processing of personal data. The regulatory risk of ungoverned AI is no longer hypothetical.

Key Capabilities
Every step between employee prompt and cloud AI — visible, controllable, auditable.
The principle
Brane sits between your employees and every AI provider. Each prompt classified, masked locally, audited end-to-end.
How Brane protects
Real-time detection, reversible masking, context preservation, local vault, policy per data class. Hover or scroll.
Semantic classifier identifies PII, PHI, IP, contracts and 4 more classes in under 50 ms — before the prompt ever leaves your network.
Sensitive entities are replaced with stable tokens. The cloud LLM works on context; Brane resolves tokens back to cleartext on the response path.
Brane keeps the prompt usable. Person, address, account — masked but coherent, so the AI can still reason about relationships.
Token-to-cleartext mapping lives on Brane hardware, never in the cloud. Vault is hardware-encrypted, EU-sovereign.
Different rules for PII, PHI, IP, contracts — per role, per use case. Compliance teams define once, Brane enforces everywhere.
By the numbers
Detection latency
From prompt to classified entities — per request, per data class.
Data classes
PII, PHI, IP, contracts, financials, source code, patient IDs, trade secrets.
On-prem vault
Token mapping lives on your Brane appliance, never leaves the network.
Audit chain
Tamper-evident hash chain over every masking decision — EU AI Act ready.
Matrix
All models supported today. Brane handles the routing — you set the policy.
Premium reasoning, vision and coding — accessed via gateway with prompt-level DLP.
Brane routing

Without Brane
Every major assistant is powerful — and every one of them sees your prompt in cleartext. Here's the exposure per provider, and what Brane changes.
The moment an employee hits send, your trade secret leaves the building — in cleartext, onto servers you don't control. A prompt can never be un-sent. No audit, no forensics, no sovereignty over what was shared.
With Brane
Copilot reads across mail, files, chats and Teams in your entire M365 — and feeds all of it to the model. Tenant boundaries protect access, not content. One misconfiguration and your full corporate knowledge is exposed.
Strong model, same gap: contracts, source code and patient records go unprotected into a foreign cloud. You're trusting a third party not to store, not to train, not to leak — and you can prove none of it.
Gemini is baked into Gmail, Docs and Drive — millions of prompts, zero data-class control. PII, IP and financials get treated like small talk. Once it's out, you never get it back.
Integration
Cloud models, SIEM, identity, collaboration — Brane speaks everything you already run. Including Microsoft 365 & Copilot, Entra ID, Microsoft Purview and Sentinel — wired in as an API gateway or reverse proxy in front of your LLM endpoints, with SSO and audit export to your SIEM/SOAR.
Vision
Brane AIF grows in four stages — Shield, Flow, Govern, Orchestrate: from protecting individual prompts to RAG-aware productivity and the governance of entire agent fleets, where humans and AI collaborate securely and verifiably.
