    Anthropic and OpenAI's publicly available models are explicitly guard-railed so that they refuse offensive tasks. And their cyber-focussed models are gated for enterprises. This leaves SMEs and mid market open to major vulnerabilities. AI can be used as both an adversarial and defensive tool in the world of cyber. A worst case outcome is if only the adversaries have access. Meanwhile, most existing AI cyber tools are just wrappers. The problem is that they still have all the guardrails on from the foundation model where they will inherit its refusals. For this project we've post-trained a…

    Hey HN, I wanted to share something I’ve been working on: *RAG-Guard*, a document AI that’s all about privacy. It’s an experiment in combining Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with AI-powered question answering, but with a twist — your data stays yours. Here’s the idea: you can upload contracts, research papers, personal notes, or any other documents, and RAG-Guard processes everything locally in your browser. Nothing leaves your device unless you explicitly approve it. ### How It Works - * Zero-Trust by Design*: Every step happens in your browser until you say otherwise. - * Local…

    Hi HN, I built PII Firewall because I got tired of watching "privacy" APIs secretly pipe user data to cloud AI models. If you're using GPT/Claude to redact PII, you're literally giving the AI your PII. What makes this different: - Zero AI – deterministic regex + 30 checksum validators (Luhn, Verhoeff, Mod 11/97) - Zero storage – processes on Cloudflare edge, no logs, no persistence - 152 PII types – SSN, Aadhaar, 50+ country IDs, 20 API key formats, crypto wallets - Two modes: `/fast` (2-5ms) for structured PII, `/deep` (5-15ms) adds names/addresses via 2000+ name…
