Privacera Launches Open-Source Framework for Responsible Generative AI Development

Privacera, the AI and data security governance company founded by the creators of Apache Ranger and a comprehensive generative AI governance solution, announced the open-sourcing of its Privacera AI Governance (PAIG) solution.

According to Privacera, PAIG Open-Source Software (PAIG OSS) is an open-source framework empowering developers to build innovative generative AI (GenAI) applications while adhering to the highest standards of ethics, privacy, and security.

The rapid adoption of GenAI has moved faster than most organizations anticipated, with 10% of the Global 2000 already claiming to have GenAI projects in production. However, the risks associated with AI applications involving sensitive corporate or personal information are becoming increasingly clear.

PAIG OSS offers a robust, open-source toolkit for organizations of all sizes to pilot and produce secure GenAI solutions.

"Open-source frameworks like PAIG OSS are vital for the future of GenAI because they embody the principles of transparency, collaboration, and inclusivity," said Balaji Ganesan, CEO and co-founder of Privacera. "By standardizing on open APIs and fostering a community-driven approach, we not only accelerate innovation but also ensure that the development of GenAI aligns with ethical standards and diverse perspectives. API governance and data leadership are crucial for building trust in AI systems and making them more resilient, secure, and adaptable to the evolving needs of businesses and society."

Key features of PAIG OSS include:

Extensibility: Seamless integration with a wide range of Large Language Models (LLMs), Vector Databases (VectorDBs), orchestrators, and other AI tools. This extensibility allows developers to leverage the best technologies available, ensuring their GenAI applications are powerful and adaptable.
Security and safety: Implements best practices and recommendations from leading security frameworks, including NIST and OWASP. These comprehensive security measures ensure that AI applications are protected against a wide range of threats, safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining the integrity of AI systems.
Flexibility: Designed with flexibility at its core, PAIG OSS allows users to integrate new tools and solutions without needing to rewrite their applications. This customizable approach ensures organizations continuously evolve AI capabilities to meet emerging challenges and opportunities.
Observability: Organizations can monitor all invocations to LLMs and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems, providing comprehensive observability for security, compliance, and operational reviews.
Future-proofing: Continuously updated to include the latest security and safety solutions, ensuring long-term relevance and protection against emerging threats.
User-focus: Designed with a strong focus on user needs. PAIG OSS provides a robust framework incorporating the best available point solutions, allowing developers to concentrate on their core use cases.

PAIG OSS is a platform that empowers individual developers and practitioners, providing them with easy access to essential tools and libraries.

This democratizes the development of responsible AI applications, making it accessible to both seasoned AI experts and newcomers. PAIG OSS offers the resources to build innovative and ethical AI solutions, making every developer and practitioner an integral part of the AI community.

PAIG OSS is now available for download on Privacera’s GitHub repository.
