garak

open sourcefreeexplicit relation

garak is NVIDIA's open-source LLM vulnerability scanner for red-teaming AI models and applications. Probes for prompt injection, data leakage, hallucination, toxicity, encoding-based attacks, and dozens of other vulnerability categories. Runs automated attack sequences against any LLM endpoint and generates detailed vulnerability reports. Features a modular probe/detector architecture that is extensible with custom attack patterns. Named after the Star Trek character known for deception.

garak is a 100% open-source LLM vulnerability scanner developed by NVIDIA and the open-source community, released under the Apache 2.0 license. It is completely free to use and automate in CI/CD pipelines.

Guardrails AI

open sourceexplicit relation

Guardrails AI is an open-source Python and JavaScript framework for validating and structuring LLM outputs using composable Guards built from a Hub of pre-built validators. It handles structured data extraction with Pydantic models, content safety checks including toxicity, PII detection, competitor mentions, and bias filtering, plus automatic re-prompting when validation fails. The Guardrails Hub offers dozens of validators from regex matching to hallucination detection via LLM judges.

100% open-source core and Guardrails Hub (Apache-2.0, $0 self-hosted). Guardrails Cloud offers managed validation APIs, centralized telemetry, enterprise governance, and dedicated support.

NeMo Guardrails

open sourceexplicit relation

NeMo Guardrails is NVIDIA's open-source toolkit for adding programmable safety rails to LLM applications. It supports five guardrail types — input, dialog, retrieval, execution, and output rails — covering content safety, jailbreak detection, topic control, PII masking, hallucination detection, and fact-checking. The toolkit uses Colang, a domain-specific language for defining conversational constraints, and integrates with OpenAI, Azure, Anthropic, HuggingFace, and LangChain/LangGraph.

100% open-source software (Apache-2.0, $0) developed by NVIDIA. Free to self-host and deploy locally or as a containerized microservice alongside any LLM provider or NVIDIA NIM.

DeepEval

88/100open sourcefreemiumexplicit relation

DeepEval is an Apache-2.0 Python framework for evaluating LLM apps, RAG systems, agents, MCP workflows, and safety behavior with repeatable test cases. It works locally and in CI/CD, then connects to Confident AI for hosted reports, observability, red teaming, and governance when teams need shared evidence instead of ad-hoc prompt reviews and manual QA.

Open-source core (Apache-2.0) with $0 local Pytest evaluations. Confident AI Cloud Free includes 2 seats, 5 test runs/wk, and 5 GB-mo trace data. Starter is $99-$200/mo for automated CI/CD testing ($1/GB-mo trace overage). Pro/Team is $499-$2,000/mo with 75 GB trace data, Git prompt versioning, RBAC, and SOC 2 Type II. Enterprise offers custom pricing for VPC/on-premise deployment, DeepTeam AI Red Teaming, production Guardrails, HIPAA compliance, and 24/7 SLA.Review →

MCP-Scan

90/100open sourceexplicit relation

MCP-Scan is a security tool that scans MCP servers for vulnerabilities including tool poisoning, prompt injection, cross-origin escalation, and rug pull attacks. Acquired by Snyk in 2026, it is the first dedicated security scanner for the MCP ecosystem. It analyzes tool descriptions, permissions, and behavior patterns to detect malicious or compromised MCP servers before they can exploit AI agents.

100% free and open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) security auditing and vulnerability scanner developed by Invariant Labs (Apache-2.0 License). Analyzes MCP client configurations, tool schemas, and server definitions to detect prompt injection vectors, malicious tool poisoning, cross-server shadowing, and unintended permission escalation at zero software cost.Review →
