Unfortunately the internet is full of examples of security incidents – so how do you ensure your IP is secure?

Small companies don’t have all of the processes in place and larger companies have a lot more potential for human error (high error rate _ low quantity vs low error rate _ high quantity). Companies like OpenAI and Github are examples of how much hype (and FOMO) currently surrounds ChatGPT and Copilot, hence they have encountered security breaches but are also more susceptible to hackers and bad actors. Furthermore, with a massive race to LLM-powered dev tooling products, corners will and are being cut.

How SWIFT delivers the benefits of AI while not exposing you to security risks?

SWIFT offers a cloud-hosted or self-hosted on-premise solution. While we have 30 + years providing cloud-hosting experience we're convinced moving away from cloud-hosted solutions is the next chapter of AI to give clients peace of mind that their private data is secure because it never leaves their premises.

This means no one can ever get access to your IP or data, including us at SWIFT.  Our self-hosted solution offers you all the benefits of our AI solutions and services without any of the risk.

Our self-hosted deployment lets you run SWIFT AI in a fully air gapped system, with no code or data leaving your on-premises servers or virtual private cloud, even to us. If you prefer SaaS, you still get industry-leading security guarantees, including zero data retention and SOC2 compliance.

When it comes to models: pretraining, task specific finetuning, customer specific finetuning, and API integrations SWIFT will maintain our unique competency and flexibility. Our ongoing R&D focuses on what drives the most value for each workload, continuous improvement, and iterate accordingly with new research and advancements in the AI industry. We will continue to capitalize on state-of-the-art open-source models that offer competitive benefits for our clients. This technological strategy is rare.

We are dedicated to maintaining our unique ethical and legal commitment to never use non-permissively licensed code in any of our training processes. To ensure proactive compliance, we will continue to enhance this approach with advanced attribution filtering and logging, providing a fully compliant, end-to-end solution. Contact us to learn more!
