Can We Truly Test Gen AI Apps? Growing Need for AI Guardrails

Unlike traditional software, where testing is relatively straightforward, Gen AI apps introduce complexities that make testing far more intricate. This blog explores why traditional software testing methodologies fall short for Gen AI applications and highlights the unique challenges posed by these advanced technologies.

PII vs PHI vs PCI: What is The Difference

In this age of digital supremacy, keeping our data safe and respecting privacy are super important. As more and more people and businesses use online platforms, it’s crucial to understand what types of data need that extra layer of protection, especially when it comes to PII vs PHI vs PCI. Understanding the distinctions between PII (Personally Identifiable Information), PHI (Protected Health Information), and PCI (Payment Card Information) is crucial.

AI and LLM Data Security: Strategies for Balancing Innovation and Data Protection

Striking the right balance between innovation using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs) and data protection is essential. In this blog, we’ll explore critical strategies for ensuring AI and LLM data security, highlighting some trade-offs.

Response Accuracy Retention Index (RARI) - Evaluating Impact of Data Masking on LLM Response

As language models (LLMs) in enterprise applications continue to grow, ensuring data privacy while maintaining response accuracy becomes crucial. One of the primary methods for protecting sensitive information is data masking. However, this process can lead to significant information loss, potentially rendering responses from LLMs less accurate. How can this loss be measured?

Best Practices for Protecting PII Data

Protecting PII data has never been more crucial. In today’s digital age, personal information is constantly at risk from cyber threats. Ensuring data privacy is essential for maintaining trust and compliance with regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). PII means Personally Identifiable Information. It includes data that can identify someone, like their name, address, or social security number.

Why You Should Encourage Your AI/LLMs to Say 'I Don't Know'

In AI and machine learning, providing accurate and timely information is crucial. However, equally important is an AI model’s ability to recognize when it doesn’t have enough information to answer a query and to gracefully decline to respond. This capability is a critical factor in maintaining the reliability and trustworthiness of the entire system.

DPDP vs. GDPR: Navigating the Complexities of Data Protection Compliance

As data privacy concerns rise globally, regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union and the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act in India have been established to safeguard personal information. While both frameworks aim to protect individuals’ data, they vary in scope, requirements, and enforcement. In this blog, we’ll explore the similarities and differences between DPDP and GDPR, focusing on key regulatory requirements.
