F5 Announces General Availability of F5 AI Guardrails and F5 AI Red Team
F5 announced general availability of F5 AI Guardrails and F5 AI Red Team, two solutions that secure mission-critical enterprise AI systems. With these releases, F5 is the only vendor providing a comprehensive end-to-end lifecycle approach to AI runtime security, including enhanced ability to connect and protect AI agents with both out-of-the-box and custom guardrails. These pioneering security offerings align with customer needs for flexible deployment, model-agnostic protection, and the ability to tailor and adapt AI security policies in real time--drawing on F5's deep expertise at the application layer, where AI interactions occur. As enterprises accelerate AI adoption across customer experiences, internal workflows, and mission-critical decision making, the risk landscape is rapidly shifting. Organizations now grapple not only with external attackers, but also adversarial manipulation of models, data leakage, unpredictable user interactions, and growing compliance obligations. By pairing F5 AI Guardrail and F5 AI Red Team with traditional infrastructure protection--including API security, web application firewalls, and DDoS defenses--enter enterprises can secure AI systems alongside existing applications, improving visibility and policy consistency without relying on fragmented point solutions. Building on F5's application-layer expertise and the company's broader Application Delivery and Security Platform, these AI runtime security offerings extend F5's leadership in securing modern applications and APIs into the AI era. As organizations race to operationalize AI, most security tools address only fragments of the rapidly expanding attack surface. F5 is one of the first vendors delivering a complete AI security solution--combining real-time runtime defenses with offensive security testing and pre-built attack patterns to help organizations deploy AI with confidence. Doing so requires addressing the risks inherent in how AI systems operate in practice, where models vary widely in capability and behavior, and also interact with sensitive data, users, APIs, and other systems in ways legacy tools weren't built to manage. F5 AI Guardrails provides a model-agnostic runtime security layer designed to protect every AI model, app, and agent across every cloud and deployment environment with consistent policy enforcement. As the number of models grows into the millions, AI Guardrails delivers consistent protection against adversarial threats such as prompt injection and jailbreak attacks, prevents sensitive data leakage, and enforces corporate and regulatory obligations, including GDPR and the EU AI Act. Complementing runtime protection, F5 AI Red Team delivers scalable, automated adversarial testing that simulates both common and obscure threat vectors, powered by the industry's preeminent AI vulnerability database--adding over 10,000 new attack techniques every month as real-world threats evolve. AI Red Team reveals where models can provide dangerous or unpredictable outputs, and its insights feed directly back into AI Guardrails policies so defenses evolve as threats and models themselves change. Together, AI Guardrails and AI Red Team establish a continuous AI security feedback loop: proactive assurance, adaptive runtime enforcement, centralized governance, and ongoing improvement. F5 AI Guardrail, F5 AI Guardrails, and F5 AI Red Team are available now as part of the F5 Application Delivery and Security Platform. Supporting materials: Overview: F5 AI Guardrails.
