Nightfall AI automatically prevents sensitive data leaks across AI applications, endpoints, and SaaS to stop insider threats and reduce alert noise.

Nightfall AI provides autonomous data loss prevention by leveraging AI to deeply understand content sensitivity and trace data's full journey, offering unparalleled accuracy and context compared to traditional DLP solutions. The platform automatically prevents sensitive data exposure and exfiltration across AI applications, endpoints, and SaaS, helping organizations stop insider threats, coach safer behavior, and significantly reduce alert noise. It offers comprehensive coverage across various applications and devices, including AI tools, SaaS apps, browsers, email, desktop apps, and removable media. Nightfall AI's core technology utilizes over 100 AI-based models, LLM-based file classifiers, and Computer Vision models to classify content with 95% accuracy. It combines content inspection with AI-based data lineage tracking to understand risk based on context, not just content patterns. The platform's frictionless deployment is achieved through API-based SaaS integrations, lightweight endpoint agents, and browser plugins, which can be deployed in minutes without disrupting productivity. Nightfall AI also features Nyx, an AI-powered DLP analyst that autonomously investigates incidents, optimizes policies, and creates reports through natural language interactions. This streamlines SecOps by providing a simple user experience to quickly understand exposure and user intent, reclaiming time spent on investigations. The 'Human Firewall' aspect involves and coaches end-users to self-remediate and learn best practices, further reducing the burden on SOC teams. The tool is ideal for startups to Fortune 500 enterprises looking to protect their data from exfiltration and exposure in the evolving landscape of AI and cloud-based applications. It helps eliminate sensitive data exposure of non-human identities (NHIs), PHI, PCI, and PII from entering applications like Slack, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, GitHub, and Salesforce, and automatically revokes over-permissioned sharing of sensitive data from applications like Google Drive and OneDrive. Additionally, it prevents intellectual property from entering unauthorized web and desktop-based AI applications via prompts, file uploads, and copy/paste.
