Use Case: DLP on AI Traffic

Stop Sensitive Data From Leaving Through AI

DLP on AI traffic scans every prompt as it is sent, and every paste on sensor-equipped endpoints, for credentials, payment card numbers, US Social Security numbers, and your own custom patterns. Set each rule to Observe, Warn, Redact, or Block, and, once paste protection is on, stop a sensitive paste with clipboard clearing on macOS and Windows.

The Problem

Authorized Access, Unauthorized Destination

 

A commercial team pastes a signed contract, a rate card, and a clause library into an AI tool to write a proposal. No rule gets broken. The person already had access to every one of those documents. But the negotiated terms and the margin logic just left the building through a channel that looked authorized.

CASB and DLP tools were built to watch documents and email. They cannot read a prompt, tell what a model is being asked to do with it, or tell a person drafting a memo from an agent forwarding a file. The access is legitimate, so nothing trips.

The same thing happens in HR, when CVs and case files get summarized outside the system of record, and in Engineering, when source code gets pasted in for a quick refactor. The exposure stays silent until Legal, Privacy, or a customer asks where the data went.

AI Security Command

What CyberHQ.ai Does Differently

See it the moment it happens. Real-time pattern matching scans every prompt as it is sent, and every paste on sensor-equipped endpoints, for credentials, payment card numbers, US Social Security numbers, and custom patterns.

Set the response, not just the alert. Every DLP rule runs as Observe, Warn, Redact, or Block, or follows the tenant's default action for its severity when none is set, with precision tracked as a measured state per rule.

Block the paste, not just log it. A flagged paste into an AI tool is stopped before it reaches the model, and cancelling clears the clipboard. On Linux, the same rule still fires, caught after the fact through DLP scanning and, where enabled, file-read detection.

CyberHQ.ai Does Not Replace Your Tools

Catches What Other Security Tools Miss

 

CyberHQ.ai is not a replacement for your CASB, DLP, or secure web gateway. It sits alongside them and reads the one channel they were never built to understand: what a prompt is actually asking a model to do with the data behind it.

Scans every prompt as it is sent, across a continuously expanding watchlist of AI providers.

CyberHQ.ai turns DLP alerts into Jira or ServiceNow tickets automatically, so findings land in the queue your team already works.

Stops a flagged paste and clears the clipboard on cancel when paste protection is enabled.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does DLP on AI traffic scan?

Every prompt sent to a monitored AI tool, and every paste on sensor-equipped endpoints, for credentials, payment card numbers, US Social Security numbers, and your own custom patterns, plus health, financial-account, and source-code detectors that start in Preview. Matching runs in the browser as the prompt is sent, so a match is flagged then, not after the fact in a log review.

Does CyberHQ.ai block employees from using AI tools altogether?

No. DLP rules target specific data patterns, not the tool itself, and each rule's response is set on its own. Where enabled, Warn prompts a person in the moment instead of stopping their work outright. If one person does need stopping, Act adds per-user hard-block, soft-block, or monitor-only controls.

Can we block a paste, or only get alerted after it happens?

Both, depending on the rule. Each DLP rule runs as Observe, Warn, Redact, or Block, or follows the tenant's default action for its severity when none is set. A flagged paste into an AI tool can be stopped before it reaches the model.

Does enforcement work the same way on Windows and Linux?

On Windows, the sensor prompts on a flagged paste into a verified AI desktop app and clears the clipboard if the person cancels. MacOS can also hard-block the paste. Linux doesn't have paste-blocking yet. It relies on DLP scanning and, where enabled, file-read detection, which surfaces the same violation after the fact.

How do we know a DLP rule is actually working and not just noisy?

Every rule carries a measured precision state, computed from all-time cumulative true and false-positive labels, that moves through unmeasured, healthy, degraded, and monitor-downgraded, so a degraded rule surfaces before analyst trust in the queue erodes. A separate trigger and suppression stat is tracked on a rolling 30-day window.

What is an AI Security Command Platform?

An AI Security Command Platform gives a business a continuous, evidence-backed picture of how AI is actually being used across the organization, from first shadow AI discovery through cost governance, agent oversight, and audit-ready compliance. CyberHQ.ai is built to sit alongside your existing security stack, not replace it, and to answer three questions on an ongoing basis: how is AI being used right now, what does that usage expose you to, and can you prove you have control.
