Harness and Kong Add AI Security to Gateway Partnership

July 27, 2026
Harness and Kong have expanded their partnership to bring Harness AI security tools into Kong AI Gateway, adding discovery and protection for AI assets, agents, LLM services, and MCP workflows.

Harness and Kong Inc. announced in a press release an expanded partnership to bring Harness AI security intelligence into Kong AI Gateway. The joint offering is designed to discover, monitor, and protect AI assets, agents, LLM powered services, and MCP connected workflows that pass through the gateway.

The companies said the existing Harness and Kong API Gateway integration provides API traffic visibility, behavioral analysis, threat detection, sensitive data tracking, and deployment alongside Kong configurations. The expanded integration applies similar controls to AI traffic routed through Kong AI Gateway.

The AI Discovery feature inventories AI assets, APIs, MCP servers, tools, prompts, and resources routed through Kong AI Gateway. The AI Protection feature uses behavioral analysis and anomaly detection to identify prompt injection, data exfiltration through AI responses, jailbreaking, malicious code in prompts, and other AI specific threats.

Harness and Kong said the API Gateway integration is generally available for joint customers. The Kong AI Gateway integration, including AI Discovery and AI Protection, is also generally available now.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
