Security Checks

By enabling LLM Security, Helicone helps you enhance OpenAI chat completions with automated security checks, which includes:

  • Utilizing Prompt Armor to quickly identify and block injection threats.
  • Blocking detected threats immediately and sending details back to you in the following format: 
    {
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "PROMPT_THREAT_DETECTED",
    "message": "Prompt threat detected. Your request cannot be processed.",
    "details": "See your Helicone request page for more info."
  }
}
  • Adding minimal latency to ensure a smooth experience for compliant requests.
