What is Lakera?
Lakera secures generative AI applications, AI agents and employee AI use: its runtime protection screens prompts and responses for attacks and data leakage, and AI red teaming tests AI systems through simulated attacks.
Lakera covers workforce AI security with shadow AI discovery and data protection, AI agent security with runtime threat detection, and AI red teaming as an automated product and as an expert-led service. Detection includes direct and indirect prompt injection, data leakage, toxic content and multilingual or multimodal attacks. The vendor states sub-50 millisecond latency and support for more than 100 languages. Lakera is offered as an API-first SaaS platform and belongs to Check Point Software Technologies, whose name appears in the website footer.
Lakera AI features and use cases
- Blocks prompt injection at runtimeThe runtime protection checks each prompt and tool input before it reaches the model and flags injection attempts, including instructions hidden in documents. Developers protect agents without writing their own filters.
- Stops sensitive data leaving the companyContext-aware data protection detects confidential or personal data in prompts sent to AI tools. Security teams see and limit what employees share with external models.
- Attacks your own AI before others doAI red teaming runs automated adversarial tests against an AI application, and an expert-led service adds manual testing. Teams fix weaknesses before launch instead of after an incident.
What sets Lakera apart
- Covers runtime protection and AI red teaming in one API-first SaaS platform.
- Detection works across more than 100 languages, according to the vendor.

Questions to ask before you buy Lakera
Since Lakera belongs to Check Point, check which contract entity and legal documents apply. Ask where prompts are processed in the SaaS platform; a self-hosted option was not described on the website when we checked in September 2026. Monitoring employee prompts can reveal behavior, so involve works councils where they exist and check data processing terms.
