1stProtect and Multiverse Team Up for Secure On-Device AI

The integrated platform combines Multiverse’s CompactifAI compression technology with 1stProtect’s real-time runtime enforcement. CompactifAI shrinks large language models by up to 95% with minimal precision loss, allowing sophisticated AI to function on hardware ranging from industrial edge devices to smartphones. By eliminating the need for cloud-based inference, the solution reduces costs by 50–80% and accelerates processing speeds by up to 12 times.

While compression enables the deployment, 1stProtect’s security layer governs agent behavior, blocking threats such as prompt injection and unauthorized actions within sub-100-millisecond windows. This protection remains functional whether the system is connected to the internet or fully air-gapped. The offering targets sectors where cloud dependency is a liability, including defense, critical infrastructure, healthcare, and financial services, where data privacy and low-latency performance are non-negotiable requirements.
