Manage guardrails
Add or remove guardrails on a specific Sentinel from the app
Each Sentinel carries its own guardrail policy — the set of guardrails it runs on inbound traffic. You manage that policy per gateway from the SUPERWISE® app, so different Sentinels can enforce different rules.
Open a Sentinel from the app and find the Guardrails section. It lists the guardrails currently in the policy, each showing its direction, action, and average added latency.
Add a guardrail
- Click Add guardrail.
- In the Add a guardrail catalog, pick one to add it to this Sentinel's policy.
The available guardrails are Secret & credential detection, PII redaction, and Rudeness & toxicity. Each is added as a remediating guardrail — it redacts matched content in place. A guardrail already in the policy is marked Added.
Remove a guardrail
Use the delete icon on a guardrail's row to remove it from the policy. Removed guardrails are marked Removed until you save; if you change your mind, click Restore.
Save your changes
Adds and removals are staged — nothing changes on the gateway until you save. An unsaved-changes banner summarizes what you've edited:
- Save changes applies the new policy.
- Discard reverts to the current policy.
Saved changes take effect on the Sentinel's next heartbeat — gateways pull their guardrail policy from the control plane roughly once a minute, so a new policy is live within about a minute.
