Cyborg, a pioneer in high-performance AI system security, has announced a strategic partnership with Austin Artificial Intelligence to provide secure, end-to-end AI infrastructure for customer deployments. This collaboration positions Austin Artificial Intelligence as an early provider of AI solutions featuring built-in encryption and secure infrastructure. By leveraging Cyborg’s flagship product, CyborgDB, Austin AI aims to deliver production-ready artificial intelligence that meets the stringent security and compliance requirements of modern enterprises.
Cyborg and Austin AI have partnered to deliver end-to-end secure AI in production environments.
The partnership utilizes CyborgDB, an encrypted vector database designed for regulated industries.
CyborgDB offers sub-millisecond latency for searching millions of vectors without exposing plaintext.
The collaboration addresses emerging vulnerabilities in vectors and embeddings as warned by OWASP.
Austin AI will integrate secure infrastructure into its AI strategy and operational consulting.
The initiative aims to reduce friction between rapid AI deployment and enterprise security risks.
As the vector database market is projected to reach nearly $18 billion by 2034, security organizations like OWASP have identified vectors and embeddings as critical emerging vulnerabilities. Traditional AI deployments often struggle to maintain data privacy while processing high volumes of sensitive information. CyborgDB solves this by enabling true encryption-in-use, ensuring that vectors, metadata, and encryption keys remain protected throughout the entire processing lifecycle.
“AI adoption is accelerating, but security has lagged behind,” said Nico Dupont, Founder and CEO of Cyborg. “This partnership with Austin AI shows that secure, production-ready AI infrastructure is not just possible – it’s already being deployed.”
Austin Artificial Intelligence is recognized for its work in embedding AI across enterprise strategy, operations, and decision-making. Through this partnership, the firm can offer its clients the ability to deploy AI on sensitive data without introducing new organizational risks. This shift moves the industry standard toward "secure AI by default," ensuring that security measures act as a facilitator rather than an inhibitor of productivity.
“Our customers want to deploy AI on sensitive data without introducing new risk,” said Robert Corwin, CEO of Austin Artificial Intelligence. “Partnering with Cyborg allows us to confidently bring end-to-end security into production AI systems, giving enterprises the confidence to move faster and scale AI safely.”
CyborgDB is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing database infrastructure without requiring a new data plane. This allows organizations in highly regulated sectors—such as finance, energy, and healthcare—to scale their AI operations while safeguarding digital rights and data integrity. By providing a foundation where security is integral to the infrastructure, the partnership helps businesses navigate the transition from experimental AI to robust, high-performance systems in production.
This collaborative approach ensures that as AI becomes more central to corporate process automation and predictive analytics, the underlying data remains encrypted and compliant. The partnership underscores a broader industry movement focusing on the reliability and safety of AI systems as they scale to meet global enterprise demands.
