DeepSeek’s privacy policy states it collects keystroke data, IP addresses, and even tracks actions outside the app. That alone should be enough to make people think twice…”

SAN DIEGO, CA, UNITED STATES, January 31, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Backplain, a leading SaaS AI Control Platform, already recognized as an Emerging Specialist in Generative AI Engineering by Gartner®, announced today the inclusion of the open-source DeepSeek R1 model.

“As soon as DeepSeek was announced, our users asked for it to be added to Backplain,” said Tim O’Neal, CEO of Backplain. “But with secure controlled use of models as our primary product tenet, it was clear that we had to only make the open source version of the R1 model available running on our AWS-hosted infrastructure.”

Backplain’s platform is designed with security and compliance at its core, supporting content anomaly detection and data protection, both key elements of Gartner’s Trust, Risk, and Security Management (TRiSM) framework. As a mediation layer between the organization and any AI model, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), Backplain validates information flows to and from a model against organization policies to help mitigate content generation risks; this protects organizations from potential legal, reputational, or decision-making risks associated with uncontrolled LLM outputs. Backplain also encrypts, obfuscates, and controls data flow to and from LLMs, ensuring data privacy and confidentiality by preventing the exposure of proprietary or sensitive data to third-party environments.

“With DeepSeek’s accuracy already in question, the ability to directly compare its responses with that of other models is going to be critical,” said Reed Anderson, Chief Product Officer of Backplain. “Time and time again, our users tell us that simple side-by-side comparison of responses makes a huge difference to their productive use of Generative AI/LLMs.”
