About Custos — The bouncer for your AI agents
About Privent 2.0
Privent 2.0 is a dedicated runtime data control solution designed specifically to secure n8n workflows. In standard AI workflows, agents frequently transmit raw, sensitive information—including emails, database records, API keys, and secrets—to Large Language Models (LLMs) on every run. While n8n's native Guardrails node can redact this information, that redaction is permanent, preventing the workflow from reclaiming the original data once processed.
Privent 2.0 resolves this issue by tokenizing PII and secrets before they reach the LLM, and then safely reversing the tokenization at a trusted sink to restore the original data. As an Official n8n Integration Partner, it is built for production teams running complex agent workflows that cannot afford a single leaked record. For teams requiring strict data boundaries and absolute compliance, Privent 2.0 also features a Local mode that runs entirely offline.
