FAQs
How is Protopia AI's solution different from data masking solutions?
Protopia AI's solution is fundamentally different from data masking solutions. We don't scan data to mask anything. For inference, our software runs as an optimization step, creating a transform that lets the model use transformed data for accurate predictions without accessing original data. No data scanning is involved.
Can SGT be used with any deep-learning model?
Yes, SGT is model-agnostic and can be applied to various deep-learning models, including LLMs and computer vision models.
How does SGT modify embeddings and apply transformations?
SGT applies transformations after the initial input embedding layer, ensuring minimal disruption. Tokenization and embedding transformations are handled by SGT, and only transformed embeddings are sent to the model. The model remains unchanged.
How fast is Stained Glass Transform?
SGT is orders of magnitude faster (900x-15,000x faster) than similar techniques. It adds milliseconds of latency.
How does SGT impact model accuracy?
SGT minimizes impact on accuracy. In many cases, models trained with SGT-transformed data achieve near-identical performance to plain-text counterparts.
How much computational overhead is required?
The computational overhead of applying Stained Glass Transform™ is minimal. This is made possible by our patented technology which runs as an optimization stage at the end of model training.
How do you empirically evaluate the effectiveness of SGT on prompts when the data is fully obfuscated?
The stochastic representation of data is fully compatible with the target model, so all existing metrics such as accuracy, precision, perplexity, etc. can be calculated exactly the same as without SGT. When the content of the obfuscated prompts are important, Protopia AI employs a unique identifier which the model provider can use to request access to the originals from the data owner.This allows for accurate measurement of model performance without exposing the raw data and maintaining data sovereignty These techniques are fully compatible with fine-tuning scenarios.
How does SGT address the risk of data leakage or theft?
Protopia AI's SGT safeguards data used by AI models. SGT transformations render data unintelligible to humans but still understandable by the target model, adding an extra layer of protection.
Can SGT protect data used in RAG applications?
Yes, SGT can integrate easily into existing RAG pipelines. The retrieval mechanism remains unchanged, and compiled prompts are transformed before leaving the enterprise.
How does SGT handle fine-tuning of models with sensitive data?
After creating a Stained Glass Transform for a foundation LLM, that model can be fine-tuned using protected data. Because SGT’s outputs are embeddings fully compatible with its corresponding base model, fine-tuning a foundation model looks exactly the same as without SGT, except that the data is first transformed.
How does SGT compare to encryption?
SGT complements encryption. Encryption protects data in transit and at rest; SGT safeguards data when used by AI models.
Is this encryption? Is there a key?
No, the transformed data is not encrypted, so there is no key and no decryption process.
I have a lot of data my customers want to access in order to validate their model, but I cannot currently offer them my data because of the sensitive nature of the data, can you help with that?
Yes, we can enable you to provide customized versions of your data that do not expose all the information in each data record for customers or 3rd party AI service providers that want to validate their ML models with your data.
Do I (the customer) need to send you (Protopia AI) my data to transform?
No, we never input any customer’s data. Transformations are done within the customer’s own data ingestion pipeline.
Do I have to expose my neural network model to you?
No, Protopia's solution works within your enterprise's infrastructure. Neither the model nor data needs to be exposed.
