Iron Shield
Iron Shield is a paid AI security and vulnerability scanning platform designed for small and medium-sized businesses. It combines AI usage monitoring, vulnerability scanning, asset management, and compliance into a single dashboard. The homepage positions it as enterprise-grade security without the enterprise price tag, with nine or more scanners and 33 integrations. Iron Shield uses an agentless scanner to connect cloud accounts, SaaS tools, and code repositories. It discovers domains, DNS/TLS/WHOIS records, cloud resources such as EC2/S3/RDS/VMs, SaaS users and identities, code and secrets, and endpoints. Findings are mapped to MITRE ATT&CK with remediation steps, and scans are claimed to complete in under 30 seconds with read-only API access. An optional on-prem agent is available for Linux, macOS, Windows, and Kubernetes. Additional features include a Chrome MV3 AI governance extension that intercepts AI API traffic in the browser, redacts PII before prompts leave the device, and logs interactions for ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, and similar services. Attack Path Analysis connects findings into end-to-end attack chains; a GRL rule engine supports real-time policy enforcement; and compliance capabilities cover ISO 27001 and GDPR with evidence traces and CSV export. Deepfake detection, prompt injection shielding, incident playbooks, and Jira/Trello ticket creation are also listed.

Problem solved
SMEs often lack the budget, tooling, and dedicated security staff to monitor AI usage, cloud misconfigurations, exposed credentials, software vulnerabilities, and compliance obligations across many disconnected systems. Iron Shield addresses this by automating asset discovery, vulnerability scanning, AI governance, and compliance evidence collection in one agentless dashboard, reducing the need for multiple specialist tools or a full security operations team.
Use cases
- Monitor employee AI tool usage and redact PII before prompts are sent to services like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot
- Scan cloud accounts such as AWS, GCP, and Azure for misconfigurations, exposed credentials, and CVEs
- Maintain an inventory of domains, servers, cloud resources, and SaaS applications with real-time risk scoring
- Map security findings to MITRE ATT&CK and visualize attack paths from initial access to potential data exfiltration
- Define and enforce security policies with the GRL rule engine without writing custom code
- Prepare ISO 27001 and GDPR compliance evidence with per-control checks and CSV exports for auditors
- Detect synthetic voice and video deepfakes in Slack, Zoom, or Teams
- Block prompt injection and jailbreak attempts, then create Jira or Trello tickets from findings
