Deployment options
SaaS
TrustGate is fully managed by NeuralTrust. Fastest to adopt; ideal for teams without strict data-residency or on-prem constraints.
Hybrid
Control plane is managed by NeuralTrust; the runtime data plane runs in your cloud. Recommended for most enterprise deployments.
On-prem
Full self-hosting in your environment, including the control plane. Required when data, policies, and logs must never leave your perimeter.
Why hybrid is the common default
- AI traffic and prompts stay in your cloud.
- NeuralTrust manages upgrades, detector models, and the policy surface.
- Policies, detections, and logs can be pinned to your accounts, buckets, and SIEM.
Enforcement modes
Deployment answers “where does it run”; enforcement answers “is it on the critical path”.Inline
TrustGate sits between the app and the LLM. It can block and mask in real time. Use for production traffic where control is required.
Out-of-band
Traffic is mirrored to TrustGate without blocking. Use for rollouts, audit environments, and baselining before enforcement.
- Deploy hybrid, enforcement set to out-of-band, and let detections run for a couple of weeks.
- Review alerts, tune policies, and agree on actions with stakeholders.
- Flip the relevant policies to inline with
block/mask.
