Solution / EU AI Act

Meet the technical obligations of the EU AI Act.

The EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) requires deployers to know which AI systems are in use, control how they are used, and prove it, with penalties up to €15M for violations of Article 15's cybersecurity requirements. Patronus operationalizes the technical obligations on the endpoint: a live AI inventory covers Article 4's literacy baseline, local logging builds the Article 12/26 audit trail, and real-time enforcement addresses Article 15, without routing a single prompt through another cloud.

What the AI Act actually demands

Know your AI (Art. 4)

You must demonstrate employees understand the AI they use, which presupposes a complete inventory, including shadow AI.

Log and prove (Art. 12, 26)

Deployers must retain logs of high-risk AI system operation. Provider-side logs are incomplete and out of your control.

Secure the system (Art. 15)

Accuracy, robustness and cybersecurity, including defenses against data poisoning and adversarial inputs. Binding since August 2, 2026.

How Patronus maps to the AI Act

1

AI inventory, automatically

Endpoint-level discovery builds a complete, current inventory of every AI system in use, the foundation every other obligation depends on.

2

Endpoint-side audit trail

Every AI interaction is logged locally in a structured, compliance-ready form, independent of what providers expose.

3

Technical safeguards, enforced

Prompt-injection filtering, data-leak prevention and policy enforcement run in real time on the device, matching Art. 15's security expectations.
