Fastly has announced new security features aimed at giving enterprises real-time oversight of their AI systems. The additions — AI Runtime Control, AI Firewall, and expanded API Security capabilities — were detailed in a Help Net Security report and are part of the company's Fastly for AI portfolio.

According to the announcement, these tools are designed to help organizations govern AI models and agents. AI Runtime Control focuses on real-time visibility and control, while the AI Firewall is positioned as a protective layer for AI infrastructure. The API Security enhancements broaden the existing suite.

The move reflects a growing demand for security controls that operate during AI deployment, not just during development. That said, the source is a single vendor press release, so the claims have not been independently verified.
