## Abstract (arXiv)

While Large Language Models (LLMs) have become essential productivity tools, their integration into workflows without adequate safeguards creates significant risks. This paper proposes an open-source, privacy-focused, user-facing firewall designed to secure both web-based and programmatic LLM interactions. The architecture combines a browser extension and a proxy for total traffic interception across both HTTP(S) and WebSocket communications. At its core, a flexible multi-agent pipeline delivers data leakage prevention through a hybrid approach combining deterministic detectors with LLM-driven semantic analysis, proprietary code leakage prevention, and extensible components designed for future security enhancements such as prompt injection evasion. The framework's layered architecture enables deployment across heterogeneous environments, allowing organizations to balance computational cost, detection depth and latency. Evaluation results demonstrate it achieves F1 scores of up to 94.93% on optimal configurations.
