ShiftGuard™: The Cognitive Firewall
of the Agentic Enterprise
The future of AI is not autonomous.
It is governed.
Entrusting critical processes to probabilistic AI is a major risk.
ShiftGuard is the infrastructure layer that transforms this risk into a controlled, explainable, and compliant system.
The Missing Link "Forgotten in Enterprise AI"
Why do 80% of AI projects remain at the POC stage?
Because models generate:
The Structural Fracture
LLMs are not designed to respect rules.
The enterprise depends on them.
ShiftGuard resolves this structural fracture.
You keep the power of the model… But you impose your own rules.
The Architecture of ShiftGuard:
The 4 Cognitive Engines
ShiftGuard works as a Cognitive Proxy :
it intercepts, analyzes, filters and traces every agent decision.
No query escapes ShiftGuard. None.
1 - Compliance Engine
(Detection, anonymization and data sovereignty)
Before the model reads the message
- •PII/PHI detection (names, IBAN, salaries, health data)
- •Dynamic anonymization ([CLIENT_NAME], [AMOUNT])
- •Partial or total redaction depending on risk
- •GDPR verification
- •Geofencing of sensitive flows
➡️ Objectif : Zero data leak.
2 - Semantic Firewall
(The Guardian of coherence)
During reasoning
- •Obligation to cite RAG sources
- •Prohibition of invention (Zero Interpretation / Zero Hallucination)
- •Verification of internal business rules
- •Tone and style filtering (Brand Safety)
- •Immediate blocking in case of deviation
➡️ Objectif : Zero improvisation.
3 - HITL Orchestrator
(Intelligent Human Control)
ShiftGuard classifies each action according to deterministic severity
- •🟢 Minor → the agent executes.
- •🟠 Major → the agent requests validation: "Do you want me to proceed?"
- •🔴 Critical → action blocked + mandatory human intervention (HITL).
- •Critical examples: payments, contractual modifications, external communications, sensitive IT interventions
➡️ Objectif : The human always has the last word.
4 - Audit Log (Flight Recorder)
(The cognitive black box)
ShiftGuard records
- •Input
- •Output
- •RAG Context
- •Applied rules
- •Risk score
- •Action (authorized / blocked / escalated)
- •Explicit justification
➡️ Objectif : Total traceability for audits, CAC, AI Act.
Personalization:
Your Governance, Your Rules
ShiftGuard adapts to all company sizes
From SME to mid-cap to regulated large accounts.
The ShiftGuard personalization engine
Each organization can define:
- its business rules
- its tolerance levels (strict / moderate / permissive)
- its personalized HITL thresholds
- its own prohibitions (tone, vocabulary, actions)
- its blocking criteria
- its documentary validation criteria
- its internal AI Act requirements
Your governance is unique.
ShiftGuard executes it deterministically.
It's the difference between:
Technical Integration
[User / ERP / CRM]
ShiftGuard
[LLM: OpenAI / Claude / Mistral / Llama / Local]
ShiftGuard is model-agnostic:
Possible deployment:
European SaaS
Private cloud
On-Premise
(banking, healthcare, defense)
Architecture:
Risks
neutralized
Concrete examples by business domain
Finance
Risk:
validation of a fraudulent transfer
→ ShiftGuard Solution:
ShiftGuard imposes HITL for any amount > threshold.
HR
Risk:
leak of salaries or internal documents
→ ShiftGuard Solution:
Automatic anonymization of sensitive data.
Legal
Risk:
invention of a clause
→ ShiftGuard Solution:
Zero Interpretation: the answer must come from internal documents.
Support / IT
Risk:
toxic, erroneous or dangerous action
→ ShiftGuard Solution:
Firewall + behavioral analysis + automatic blocking.
Management & COMEX
Risk:
AI decisions impossible to explain
→ ShiftGuard Solution:
Flight Recorder: complete justification.
Compliance
AI Act & GDPR
ShiftGuard natively meets European obligations
- Article 10
Data governance
ShiftGuard ensures complete traceability and governance of data used by AI systems.
- Article 11
Technical documentation
All decisions and processes are automatically documented via the Flight Recorder.
- Article 12
Logging and auditability
Each action is traced with input, output, context, applied rules and justification.
- Article 13
Transparency
Obligation of cited sources, zero hallucination, complete explainability of decisions.
- Article 14
Mandatory human control
HITL Orchestrator guarantees that humans always have the last word on critical actions.
Compliance by Design
With ShiftGuard, compliance is not a cost.
It's an automatism.
Why ShiftGuard
is unique
Competing solutions
Superficial and non-deterministic approaches
- add a rule in a prompt
- depend on the model
- guarantee no explainability
- don't actually block risky actions
- don't respect internal business rules
- don't offer complete logs
ShiftGuard
Deterministic cognitive governance and production-ready
- deterministic engine
- real semantic firewall
- imperative rules (policy_rules)
- multi-step validation
- aviation traceability
- LLM agnostic
- production-ready
We don't make AI "be careful"
We force it to respect your rules.
Transform your AI into a
secure, controlled and compliant asset
Don't let compliance slow down your innovation - industrialize it.
ShiftGuard is available: as European SaaS, Private Cloud or On-Premise. Compatible with all LLMs (GPT, Claude, Mistral, Llama). 4-week deployment. Support and training included.
