- "Prompt Guard is a classifier model trained on a large corpus of attacks, which is capable of detecting both explicitly malicious prompts (Jailbreaks) as well as prompts that contain injected inputs (Prompt Injections). We suggest a methodology of fine-tuning the model to application-specific data to achieve optimal results.\n",
+ "Llama Prompt Guard 2, a new high-performance update that is designed to support the Llama 4 line of models, such as Llama 4 Maverick and Llama 4 Scout. In addition, Llama Prompt Guard 2 supports the Llama 3 line of models and can be used as a drop-in replacement for Prompt Guard for all use cases.\n",
"\n",
- "PromptGuard is a BERT model that outputs only labels; unlike Llama Guard, it doesn't need a specific prompt structure or configuration. The input is a string that the model labels as safe or unsafe (at two different levels).\n",
+ "Llama Prompt Guard 2 comes in two model sizes, 86M and 22M, to provide greater flexibility over a variety of use cases. The 86M model has been trained on both English and non-English attacks. Developers in resource constrained environments and focused only on English text will likely prefer the 22M model despite a slightly lower attack-prevention rate.\n",

All the models are multilingual–for text-only prompts–and follow the categories defined by the ML Commons consortium. Check their respective model cards for additional details on each model and its performance.\n",

The model has 12 billion parameters in total and uses an early fusion transformer architecture with dense layers to keep the overall size small. The model can be run on a single GPU. Llama Guard 4 shares the same tokenizer and vision encoder as Llama 4 Scout and Maverick.\n",
