Browser extension
Install, configure, and test Orthalon browser protection for AI websites.
Plan requirement: Monitor mode is included on all plans. Protect, Business, and Enterprise can enforce active policies (Redact, Coach, Require Approval, Block).
The Orthalon browser extension detects sensitive prompts and file attachments locally in real time before data reaches external AI services like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Claude.

3. Test and validate protection
Follow these steps to confirm that client-side prompt inspection and policy enforcement are active:
- Open an AI application: Navigate to Google Gemini or ChatGPT.
- Test benign text: Type an ordinary prompt (such as "Summarize the history of space exploration"). No protection alert will trigger.
- Test sensitive data detection: In the chat composer input, type a test prompt containing synthetic corporate data:
Draft an update to sarah.connor@acme-corp.com using AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE - Verify policy overlay: The Orthalon detection engine immediately identifies the corporate email and cloud credential, displaying the inline coaching, redaction, or approval overlay before the prompt is sent.
