What Is LLM-Audit™?

LLM-Audit™ is a comprehensive audit solution for the use of large language models (LLMs) and AI agents.

The solution provides bidirectional auditing of both the data sent to LLMs (outbound) and the data returned from LLMs (inbound),
strengthening security and compliance in your organization's use of AI.

Bidirectional audit flow

Do These Challenges Sound Familiar?

Serious risks and challenges that many companies face when adopting LLMs

Risk of Confidential Information Leakage

Employees may unknowingly enter confidential information or PII (personally identifiable information) into an LLM, causing it to leak outside the company unintentionally. Once data has been used for training it is difficult to remove, creating a long-term data leakage risk.

Risk of Compliance Violations

Information sent to an LLM service may be unintentionally stored and used for training in a third party's service environment, so companies must properly address regulatory requirements such as corporate confidentiality obligations and the Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI).

Risk of Liability for Damages from Erroneous LLM Output

Misinformation or inappropriate answers generated by an LLM can cause harm to customers and business partners, giving rise to litigation risk and liability for damages. In the medical, financial, and legal fields in particular, the consequences can be catastrophic.

Risk of Brand Damage

Inappropriate remarks, discriminatory content, or ethically problematic answers can severely damage your corporate brand image and cost you public trust. In the age of social media, such incidents spread in an instant and cause damage that is hard to recover from.

If these risks are left unaddressed...

[Image: "We didn't know" is no excuse. The price of leaking confidential information to AI services is steep]

Massive damages, sanctions from regulators, customer attrition, falling stock prices, and more
can lead to consequences serious enough to threaten the very survival of your company

Security Features in Detail

Comprehensive security in both directions, outbound and inbound

Outbound Security (Audit of Sent Data)

This mechanism audits and controls the data sent to LLMs. In Enterprise environments it prevents leakage of confidential information when employees use external LLM services, and in Cloud environments it detects and blocks malicious input such as prompt injection and jailbreak attacks against your own LLM service.

Feature / Technology Overview Example Implementation
Defense Features Data Leakage Prevention (for Enterprise)
• Detection of PII (personally identifiable information) such as names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses
• Identification of corporate secrets (financial information, trade secrets, intellectual property, etc.)
• Automatic detection of credentials (passwords, API keys, etc.)
• Protection of confidential information defined by your company and industry-specific information through custom rules

Attack Defense (for Cloud)
• Detection of prompt injection attacks
• Blocking of attempts to tamper with the system prompt
• Pattern recognition of jailbreak techniques
• Prevention of attempts to induce the generation of harmful or illegal content
• Users who submit toxic prompts are recorded, and users exceeding a certain score are flagged. Persistent offenders are blacklisted, warned, and suspended from the service

• PII is detected and fully masked. For pre-registered categories, the data is replaced with fake data instead of being masked and the replacement is reversed when the LLM responds, keeping the LLM working normally while protecting confidential data
Control Features Flexible Control Options
Depending on the identified risk level, the following controls are available
• Full block: stop the transmission and state the reason
• Masking: send with only the confidential portions hidden
• Warning: notify the user of the risk, then allow the transmission
• Logging: record all activity as an audit trail
• Record all logs through custom logic, set risk levels per category for each company and department, and notify, warn, or block according to the risk level. Real-time notification to administrators for specific categories
Detection Technology Advanced Detection Technology
Rather than simple keyword matching, the following technologies deliver staged, high-precision detection
• Context analysis: decisions based on an understanding of the context
• Machine learning: adaptation to new attack patterns
• Rule engine: application of industry- and company-specific policies
• Real-time processing: high-speed scanning with minimal latency
• Because the required detection speed and accuracy are in a trade-off relationship, staged detectors are provided. Simple detectors are regex-based, while advanced ones use high-precision AI-based detection, striking a balance between usability and security

Powered by our proprietary engine
Equipped with the Japanese PII Detection Engine "PII-Fi™"

In LLM-Audit™'s outbound security, part of Layer 1 (input filtering) and Layer 2 (data protection) directly incorporates the engine of our in-house developed Japanese PII detection and masking API, PII-Fi™. With a Japanese-specific dictionary of roughly 100,000 words and 7 context-analysis pipelines, it detects and masks with high accuracy everything from personal names with honorifics and address notation variants to context-dependent monetary information.

Learns and detects each company's
"confidential information" from context

PII-Fi™'s greatest strength is that it goes beyond general Japanese PII detection to detect "confidential information" as defined differently by each company. Our proprietary context-analysis pipeline learns from the documents and business records that exist in your company, making it possible to detect from context even information that can only be judged confidential under company-specific rules, such as "internal only," "top secret," "M&A deal codes," and "internal identifiers."

This lets you reliably block or mask, before transmission to the LLM, the "confidential information defined by each company" that conventional general-purpose PII detection tends to miss.

Far faster, cheaper, and more accurate than
assembling conventional solutions yourself

Overseas PII detection tools, Faker, Japanese NLP libraries, regular expressions, dictionaries: building a Japanese-capable PII engine by combining these yourself typically takes months to years of development plus ongoing tuning costs.

PII-Fi™ integrates all of these into a single engine fully specialized for the Japanese language and Japanese culture. Immediately after deployment, it handles with high accuracy corporate names with the "Kabushiki Kaisha" prefix or suffix, dates in the Japanese era calendar or with weekdays, personal names with honorifics, address notation variants, and even linking the same person across mixed kanji, katakana, and romaji spellings.

  • A 4-layer approach combining AI-based named entity recognition and rules minimizes missed detections
  • High throughput of 1,000+ req/s, with dictionary and detector updates possible without service downtime
  • Entity Consistency: the same person is replaced with one consistent dummy name across the entire document
  • Natural dummy data generation that preserves the original notation format of phone numbers, addresses, and dates
A proprietary context-analysis pipeline
specialized for the Japanese language and culture

The same "5 million yen" is automatically classified by confidentiality according to context, as personal income (PERSONAL_INCOME) for "annual income is 5 million yen," corporate earnings (CORPORATE_EARNINGS) for "our sales were 5 million yen," and M&A information (STRAT_MA) for "the M&A amount is 5 million yen." Financial PII, credentials, HR and labor, medical and health, corporate strategy, legal and contracts, and internal identifiers, for a total of 7 domains and 48 categories, come standard.

This is a PII-Fi™ original approach not found in the major overseas PII detection services.

Inbound Security (Audit of Received Data)

LLM output carries multifaceted risks, including harmful content, misinformation, exposure of confidential information, quality degradation, and compliance violations. LLM-Audit's inbound security features adopt a staged processing architecture called the audit pipeline to verify each of these risks in multiple layers.

Detector Overview Example Implementation
Content Filter Detects and removes harmful or inappropriate content contained in LLM output
• Identifies threats across 14 categories, including violent expressions, sexual content, and incitement to illegal activity
• High-precision decisions that take context into account
• Some LLM services output inappropriate content in certain contexts. In cases where LLM-generated answers are used directly in customer Q&A, inappropriate content is blocked to reduce the risk of damage to corporate credibility
Hallucination Detection Verifies the factuality of LLM-generated information and identifies misinformation and fabricated content
• Detects plausible but factually incorrect "hallucinations" through entity verification and logical consistency checks
- Verification using a knowledge base (embedding-based verification)
- Verification by self-check (self-check by an LLM)
• LLMs can hallucinate even when generating general content, such as in business document generation
• Triple self-checks prevent hallucinations and greatly reduce the hallucination rate
• Connects to your company's own document management system (knowledge base) and judges hallucinations from cosine similarity, reducing hallucinations in fields where LLMs are prone to them (legal, financial, medical)
Confidential Information Filter Detects and removes confidential information that may be unintentionally included in output
• Identifies PII (personally identifiable information), corporate secrets, internal data, credentials, and more with high accuracy
• Minimizes the risk of unintended leakage of confidential information contained in training data
• When fine-tuning on in-house data to build a domain-specific LLM, PII that had accidentally been mixed into the corporate database was learned by the model. When the LLM attempts to output that PII, the Audit PII Detector stops it in advance, preventing PII from leaking to users
Quality Check Evaluates answer consistency and ensures output that meets business quality standards
• Detects mismatches between the question and the answer and revises the output into a natural business document
• Detects and controls output that is obviously LLM-generated
• Detects answers that respond to "Tell me the sales target" with generic business theory and converts them into concise, practical answers
• Automatically corrects LLM-typical stock phrases such as "What do you think?" and "from three perspectives" to generate answers in natural Japanese
Compliance Check Confirms compliance with industry-specific regulatory requirements and legal constraints
• Automatically detects and corrects industry-specific regulatory violations
• Minimizes legal risk, including automatic insertion of disclaimers
• In pharmaceuticals and medicine, detects definitive statements about diagnoses or prescriptions and adds a recommendation to see a doctor along with a disclaimer
• In finance, identifies profit guarantees and definitive investment advice and automatically adds risk explanations and statutory disclosures
• In legal, detects content that amounts to unlicensed legal advice and revises it into wording that encourages consulting a lawyer

Layered Guardrail Defense: Performance Optimization

Each guardrail has an internal hierarchical processing engine, achieving the optimal balance between accuracy and performance. In PII detection, for example, processing deepens in stages:

High-speed pattern matching (L1) → Structural analysis (L2) → Contextual entailment detection model (L3) → Dedicated LLM (L4)

95% of requests are completed in the fast, shallow layers, and deep analysis is applied only to genuinely high-risk cases, achieving both millisecond-level response times and high accuracy.

Hierarchical processing engine

[Image: Conceptual diagram of the hierarchical processing engine (L1 to L4 processing flow)]

Optimized Performance and Accuracy

Processes 95% of requests in milliseconds while targeting a threat detection rate of 99.9% or higher. Parallel processing of independent guardrails minimizes total processing time.

Operational Flexibility

Add new guardrails or update existing rules without stopping systems in operation. Staged rollout through A/B testing keeps the impact on production environments to a minimum.

We aim to be the most trusted partner for Japanese enterprises in using LLMs safely, practically, and for the long term

Advantage LLM-Audit's strengths Common challenges
1. Unmatched understanding of Japanese Developed by native Japanese-speaking engineers, building on more than 10 years of Japanese NLP research and real Japanese-language attack datasets

• Draws on a broad technology stack, from morphological analysis to LLMs
• Deep understanding of the nuances of Japanese particles and implied meaning
• Precise detection of attack patterns unique to Japanese
• A risk detection engine that weighs context and tone
Products designed around English still struggle with sophisticated Japanese-language attack patterns

• Limits on Japanese detection accuracy in multilingual products
• Interpretation of Japanese context and implication tends to be shallow
• Insufficient handling of subtle nuances in particles and honorifics
• Response to Japanese-specific attack techniques tends to take time
2. Defenses hardened in real-world operation Uses real Japanese-language attack patterns accumulated from operating our own LLM services, ChatStream🄬 and Bestllam™, as a knowledge base

• Defense design based on real-world attack cases
• An AI red team researches new attack techniques in a hackathon format
• The latest attack techniques are reflected in the defense system immediately
• Continuous threat intelligence updates
With little real-world operational data, a gap easily opens between theoretical and actual threats

• Divergence between theory-based design and real attack patterns
• Few companies yet have a dedicated AI red team
• Detection of new attack techniques tends to take time
• Limited accumulation of real attack data
3. Deep expertise in core LLM technology In-depth knowledge of the latest inference engine technologies such as PagedAttention, TensorRT-LLM, and vLLM

• Experience developing and operating GPU inference infrastructure
• Comprehensive defense design from the LLM architecture level
• High-performance, efficient security implementation
• Fundamental, not superficial, security measures
Without an understanding of LLM infrastructure technology, security measures tend to be confined to the application layer

• Optimization at the inference engine level is difficult
• Security processing overhead tends to grow
• Integrated design of infrastructure and security requires extra effort
• Balancing performance and security becomes complex
4. Complete protection from input to output Integrates confidential data leakage prevention on input (outbound) with risk auditing on output (inbound)

• Full coverage across the entire LLM lifecycle
• Attack detection and quality control in one
• End-to-end security
• A comprehensive risk management framework
Measures covering only one direction, input or output, cannot cover the full picture of LLM security

• Many products specialize in either the input side or the output side
• Attack detection and quality control tend to be separate tools
• Risk can remain in the gaps between partial measures
• Integrating multiple tools adds development and operational cost
5. Ready for future AI risks A modular design that adapts flexibly to future regulations and the new threats of the AI agent era

• Continuous updates and ongoing security
• Long-term protection of your LLM investment
• A comprehensive security foundation for evolving AI technology as a whole
• Forward-looking design with the responsiveness and extensibility to support guardian agents and more
A fixed architecture makes it hard to keep pace with the rapidly changing AI threat landscape

• Adapting to future regulations and changes in AI technology takes effort
• Architecture changes after deployment can be difficult
• Constraints on the speed of response to new threats
• Preparation for the new risks of the AI agent era is required

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions we hear most often from those considering LLM-Audit™.

What is LLM-Audit™?

LLM-Audit™ is a comprehensive audit solution for the use of large language models (LLMs) and AI agents. It audits both the data sent to the LLM (outbound) and the output returned from the LLM (inbound), preventing leakage of confidential information, detecting and blocking toxic prompts, detecting inappropriate content, and assuring output quality. As DLP (data leakage prevention) for the AI era, it makes enterprise AI adoption safe.

What is the difference between LLM-Audit Enterprise and LLM-Audit Cloud?

They protect different targets. Enterprise is for companies that use external LLM services such as ChatGPT and Gemini. It prevents leaks caused by employees inadvertently sending PII (personally identifiable information) or confidential data, and enables employee compliance management. Interfaces include a proxy server (MITM) approach. Cloud is for companies that provide their own LLM services. It defends your service against attacks such as prompt injection and jailbreaks, and protects your end users. It can be integrated through an OpenAI API-compatible interface.

What kinds of information can it detect? How accurate is it for Japanese?

It detects PII such as names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses; corporate confidential information such as financial data, trade secrets, and intellectual property; credentials such as passwords and API keys; and confidential information defined by your company through custom rules. The outbound audit incorporates PII-Fi™, our in-house Japanese PII detection engine, which uses a Japanese-specific dictionary of roughly 100,000 terms and seven context analysis pipelines to detect personal names with honorifics, variant address notations, and even context-dependent monetary information. It supports 59 PII types, automatic classification of confidential information into 48 categories, a database of 310,000 Japanese names, and a detection latency of 1–15 ms.

After confidential information is detected, how is it controlled?

Depending on the risk level, you can choose between Full Block, which stops the transmission and shows the reason; Masking, which hides only the confidential portions before sending; Warning, which notifies the user of the risk and then allows the transmission; and Logging, which records all activity as an audit trail. For pre-registered categories, the data is replaced with fake data instead of being masked before it is sent, and then reverse-converted when the response comes back from the LLM. This protects confidential data while keeping the LLM working normally. For specific categories, administrators are notified in real time.

What is audited in the output from the LLM (inbound)?

A harmful content filter identifies threats in 14 categories, including violent expressions, discriminatory content, and the encouragement of illegal activity, while a hallucination detector identifies misinformation through entity verification, logical consistency checks, and knowledge-base-backed verification. In addition, it includes a confidential information filter that removes confidential information unintentionally included in the output, a quality assurance engine that detects mismatches between the question and the answer and shapes the output into business-ready documents, and a compliance checker that verifies adherence to industry-specific regulatory requirements.

Does it affect response time?

Each guardrail contains a layered processing engine internally to balance accuracy and speed. In PII detection, for example, processing deepens in stages from fast pattern matching (L1) to structural analysis (L2), a contextual implication detection model (L3), and a dedicated LLM (L4), and 95% of requests finish in the fast, shallow layers. By applying deep analysis only to high-risk cases, it achieves both millisecond-level response times and high accuracy. Independent guardrails are processed in parallel, and guardrails can be added and rules updated without stopping the running system.

What deployment options are available, and where is the data stored?

You can choose from three options: on-premises deployment in your own data center, Qualiteg's data center environment, or the Japan regions only of cloud platform providers (AWS and others, including government-certified government cloud). In all cases, data is kept within Japan, and confidential information never crosses national borders. On-premises deployment and Qualiteg data center deployment are offered under the Enterprise plan, while the Standard / Professional plans are provided in cloud environments. Some features may be limited when using a cloud platform provider.

Can I consult with you about pricing and deployment?

Your first consultation is free of charge. We offer product introductions (feature walkthroughs and a live demo of data leakage detection), AI security consultations (visualizing LLM usage, identifying risks, and industry-specific regulatory compliance), and deployment consulting (requirements definition, integration with existing systems, PoC, and ROI estimation).
