Robust Intelligence Partners With Pinecone to Secure Retrieval-Augmented Generation AI Applications

San Francisco, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 25, 2024 / Robust Intelligence, an AI application security firm, announces a partnership with Pinecone to integrate with Canopy, Pinecone's open-source framework, to simplify the development of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) applications.

RAG enhances AI applications by enriching them with contextually relevant information through connecting large language models (LLMs) to vector databases. However, it involves complex components and poses several safety and security risks, such as data exfiltration and injection attacks.

Pinecone's Canopy, launched in late 2023, simplifies RAG application development with features like data embedding and query optimization. Integrating Robust Intelligence with Canopy enhances the security of Pinecone's vector database, examining uploads for risks like poisoned data and malicious content.

This partnership aims to build seamless and secure RAG applications. With security scanning enabled, any data uploaded to the database undergoes automatic security checks to ensure adherence to safety standards.

The collaboration underscores the importance of integrating security into early stages of AI application development, ensuring that organizations have robust measures in place to protect sensitive data.
