Robust Intelligence
AI security pioneer: algorithmic red teaming and the industry's first AI Firewall.

About
Robust Intelligence pioneered the AI security category with algorithmic red teaming and what it called the industry's first AI Firewall. Its platform scanned models for vulnerabilities across development and enforced runtime guardrails in production, serving customers including JPMorgan Chase, IBM, and the U.S. Department of Defense.
Cisco completed its acquisition in September/October 2024, and the technology now forms the core of Cisco AI Defense and Cisco Foundation AI. Treat this as a historical entry: new buyers should evaluate Cisco AI Defense rather than the standalone product.
