Solomon AI Firewall v4.3.4

Enterprise-grade LLM security gateway. 100+ Active Guards. LLM Traffic Monitor. 509 tests. Zero dependencies.

Secure gateway between users and LLM providers. All requests are automatically filtered through 100+ Active Guards and monitored by the LLM Traffic Monitor — input and output. Users cannot disable protection.

What's New in v4.3.4

• LLM Guards Tab — Second layer of defense with external guard integrations
• 10 Guard Providers — NeMo, Guardrails AI, LLM Guard, Rebuff, Lakera, OWASP, and more
• Defense-in-Depth — Guards run alongside core modules for extra protection
• Guard History — Track all guard checks with timestamps and results

Install

pip install solomon-ai-firewall

LLM Gateway (OpenAI-compatible)

The gateway is an OpenAI-compatible proxy that sits between users and LLM providers. All requests are authenticated and filtered.

Endpoint

http://127.0.0.1:8421/v1

How Users Connect

Set the gateway as the API base URL in any OpenAI-compatible tool:

# Environment variables
export OPENAI_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8421/v1
export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-user-solomon-demo

# Then use any OpenAI-compatible client normally

Python Example

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="http://127.0.0.1:8421/v1",
    api_key="sk-user-solomon-demo",
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello, how are you?"}],
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)

cURL Example

curl http://127.0.0.1:8421/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-user-solomon-demo" \
  -d '{
    "model": "gpt-4",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
  }'

Security Is Always On

The gateway enforces STANDARD protection level on every request:

• Input filtering: Prompt injection, jailbreak (8+ languages), PII, invisible text
• Output filtering: Secrets, API keys, sensitive data, harmful content
• Users cannot disable filtering — it is server-side and independent of dashboard toggles

OpenAI-Compatible Response

The gateway returns standard OpenAI chat completion responses, plus a solomon_shield field:

{
  "id": "chatcmpl-solomon-1234567890",
  "object": "chat.completion",
  "model": "gpt-4",
  "choices": [{
    "message": {"role": "assistant", "content": "..."},
    "finish_reason": "stop"
  }],
  "usage": {"prompt_tokens": 10, "completion_tokens": 20, "total_tokens": 30},
  "solomon_shield": {
    "blocked": false,
    "input_risk": 0.0,
    "output_risk": 0.0
  }
}

If a request is blocked:

{
  "choices": [{"message": {"content": "Your message was blocked by the security filter."}}],
  "solomon_shield": {
    "blocked": true,
    "reason": "Input blocked by safety filter",
    "input_risk": 0.85,
    "findings": ["Model is echoing injection content: 'Ignore all previous instructions'"]
  }
}

Dashboard UI

Launch the interactive web dashboard:

from solomon_ai_firewall import start_dashboard

# Starts both dashboard (8420) and gateway (8421)
start_dashboard()

# Custom ports
start_dashboard(port=9000, gateway_port=9001)

# Don't auto-open browser
start_dashboard(open_browser=False)

Dashboard Tabs

LLM Guards (Second Layer Defense)

The LLM Guards tab lets you configure an LLM model as a second layer of defense. After Solomon Shield performs the first pass of filtering, content is sent to the Guard LLM for additional validation.

Flow:

User Input → Solomon Shield (first filter) → Guard LLM (second filter) → Response

This is useful when you want an independent LLM to double-check safety. For example:

• Use GPT-4 to validate Claude's output (or vice versa)
• Use a local Ollama model for cost-effective guard checks
• Use different models for input vs output validation

Supported Providers (same as LLM Providers tab):

• OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Azure, Ollama, Bedrock, Mistral, Cohere, DeepSeek, Together, Groq

from solomon_ai_firewall import get_guard_manager, GuardLLMProvider, GuardLLMConfig

# Configure a guard LLM
manager = get_guard_manager()
manager.configure(GuardLLMConfig(
    provider=GuardLLMProvider.OPENAI,
    api_key="sk-...",
    model="gpt-4",
    enabled=True,
    check_input=True,   # Validate user prompts
    check_output=True,  # Validate LLM responses
))
manager.set_active(GuardLLMProvider.OPENAI)

# Check input
result = manager.check_input("user message here")
if not result.is_safe:
    print(f"Blocked: {result.findings}")

# Check output
result = manager.check_output("LLM response here")
if not result.is_safe:
    print(f"Blocked: {result.findings}")

Gateway Tab (Admin)

The Gateway tab lets administrators:

1. See the endpoint URL — http://127.0.0.1:8421/v1
2. View usage instructions — copy-paste code snippets for users
3. Check status — active provider, model, protection level
4. Manage API keys — create, view, remove tokens for users

Protection Levels

Note: Gateway API users always get STANDARD protection. Dashboard admins can toggle to CUSTOM for testing, but this does not affect gateway requests.
