Lasso Security Forms Strategic Partnership with Swish Data to Deliver Cybersecurity for Generative AI in the Public Sector

Partnership ensures organizations have access to the tools required to securely adopt and deploy AI technologies without compromising their missions

MCLEAN, Va., Feb. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lasso Security, a Generative AI (GenAI) and Large Language Model (LLM) cybersecurity provider, today announced a strategic partnership with Swish Data Corporation (Swish), a provider of technology solutions and engineering services to the U.S. public sector, to deliver its GenAI security platform to public sector organizations including Federal civilian agencies, the Department of Defense (DoD) as well as State, Local and Education (SLED) organizations.

The platform enhances security posture by autonomously monitoring all GenAI interactions, detecting risks in real-time, and enabling users to effortlessly safeguard their GenAI activities. As public sector organizations increasingly adopt Gen AI technologies, safeguarding sensitive data and systems against new attack vectors, such as AI-driven prompt injection, data leakage, and jailbreak threats, has become a top priority.

Recognizing its productivity and efficiency boosting potential, according to McKinsey Global Institute an estimated 60 percent of organizations deploying AI tools incorporate LLM and GenAI technology into their operations. GenAI apps, tools, and models are revolutionizing how organizations operate, but it also introduces unprecedented risks.

Lasso provides organizations with an all-in-one GenAI security platform that includes:

• Lasso for Applications – sits between an organization's internally built LLM apps and all of their users to ensure that interactions comply with security policies, and sensitive data is protected from unauthorized access.
  
  
• Lasso for Employees – positioned between GenAI chatbots and the employees who use these tools to ensure continuous compliance with security protocols, and never share internal data with third party apps.
  
  
• Lasso for Developers – operates between AI-powered tools and the developers who rely on them to ensure safe interactions, overseeing code generation, and preventing all forms of malicious attacks.

Lasso is a GenAI security platform that enhances your organization's security posture by autonomously testing LLM apps, monitoring all GenAI interactions, detecting risks in real-time, and enabling advanced guardrails. With Lasso for Applications and Employees, organizations can continuously test and protect GenAI models, apps, agents, and chatbot usage while maintaining compliance and security. Capabilities include context-based security policies, advanced access control, Shadow LLM detection, and real-time response. These will all be integrated into Swish's offerings to ensure secure and compliant LLM deployments for mission-critical applications. 

"Lasso is on a mission to empower organizations to confidently adopt GenAI without compromising on security or performance," said Elad Schulman, Lasso's CEO & Co-Founder. "Swish's experience in delivering secure and scalable solutions to the public sector makes them an ideal partner to bring our innovative GenAI security solutions to this critical market. The decision to partner with Swish aligns perfectly with our company's mission to extend its reach and better serve the unique needs of the public sector while they integrate GenAI into public services and internal teams."

"Our team at Swish has established relationships and a highly successful past performance track record of empowering public sector organizations with mission-focused cybersecurity solutions tailored to meet rigorous compliance standards," said Monty Deel, chief executive officer for Swish. "By integrating Lasso's expertise in GenAI risk management with our robust network and deep understanding of the public sector, the partnership is set to deliver unmatched protection for sensitive government systems and data."
