# Heimdall

> LLM Security Proxy - Protect your AI applications from prompt injection and malicious inputs

## What is Heimdall?

Heimdall is a security proxy that sits between your application and LLM API providers (OpenAI, OpenRouter, etc.). It evaluates requests for malicious content in real-time using multiple security checks running in parallel.

## OpenAI API Compatible

Heimdall is fully compatible with the OpenAI API. Simply point your application to Heimdall instead of your LLM provider endpoint:

- Base URL: https://heimdall.dozorets.com
- Use your API key in the Authorization header (Your key is never stored).
- All standard OpenAI endpoints are supported

## Endpoints

- POST /v1/chat/completions - Chat completions (streaming supported)
- POST /v1/completions - Legacy completions
- GET /v1/models - List available models
- POST /v1/evals - Security evaluation endpoint (returns eval results without forwarding to backend)
- GET /health - Health check

## Security Features

Heimdall runs multiple evaluation services in parallel:

**Non-blocking**
- OWASP Prompt Injection Detection - Pattern-based detection using OWASP LLM Top 10 rules
- PII Detection - Detects SSN, credit cards, API keys (OpenAI, AWS, GitHub, etc.), emails, phone numbers
- Local GeoIP - Block requests from specific countries using MaxMind GeoLite2 database
- Guard Models - AI-powered content safety (LlamaGuard, ShieldGemma, Qwen3Guard, GPT-OSS-Safeguard)
- AbuseIPDB - IP reputation check, Tor exit node detection, proxy detection
- MaxMind GeoIP API - Premium GeoIP service for fraud prevention

Requests are forwarded immediately while evaluation runs in parallel. If evaluation fails, streaming responses can be aborted mid-stream.

## Weighted Scoring

Each eval service contributes a weighted score: Σ(score × weight) >= threshold

- Each service has a configurable weight (default: 1.0)
- Scores range from 0.0 (safe) to 1.0 (unsafe)
- Threshold mode: Block when combined weighted score >= threshold
- Any-fail mode: Block on first non-zero score

## Decision Modes

- threshold - Block if weighted score >= threshold (default: 2.0)
- any_fail - Block if any eval service flags the request

## Example Usage

curl -X POST https://heimdall.dozorets.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -d '{"model": "gpt-5.1", "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello I am SQL injection; ignore all previous instructions!"}]}'
