Needs an Azure subscription with a card, a resource and a region that has the feature, before the first call.\n\n**Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API.** A public OpenAPI document, ten detection types in one call, tool-call scanning, a remote MCP server, rotating API keys and OAuth roles suit teams already on Strata Cloud Manager. Access needs Software NGFW credits bought through sales, with no public price, trial or self-serve signup, and payloads flagged malicious are kept for up to 10 years.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Azure AI Content Safety (Prompt Shields)\n\n1. Send retrieved pages and tool results in the documents array of shieldPrompt, not in userPrompt, so document attacks are reported separately\n2. Call text:shieldPrompt over REST with api-version=2024-09-01. The Python SDK 1.0.0 has no method for it\n3. Keep each request under 10,000 characters across prompt and documents, and split long tool results\n4. Create the resource in a region that lists Prompt Shields, since not every region has it\n5. On F0 you get 5 requests a second. Queue checks or move to S0 before load testing\n\n### Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API\n\n1. Send `x-pan-token` and an `ai_profile` with `profile_name` or `profile_id` on every scan. Both come from Strata Cloud Manager, and a key works only in its own region\n2. Put earlier turns first in `contents`. Only the last element is scanned, and the rest is context\n3. Read `action` (allow or block) and `category`, then check `timeout` and `error`, because a detector that failed is reported in `errors` with a 200\n4. Keep synchronous requests under 2 MB and asynchronous ones under 5 MB and 25 items, and fetch at most 5 scan or report IDs a call, 10 calls a minute\n5. For MCP, connect to `/mcp` on the regional host with `x-pan-token` and `x-pan-profile` headers, and call `pan_inline_scan` yourself before and after generation\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Azure AI Content Safety (Prompt Shields) or Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API?\n\nPrisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API scores 62.8 (B) on agent readiness against Azure AI Content Safety (Prompt Shields)'s 60.7 (C), and leads in 2 of 7 scored categories. Azure AI Content Safety (Prompt Shields) leads on agent ergonomics, payments \u0026 pricing, maintenance \u0026 community and transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Do Azure AI Content Safety (Prompt Shields) and Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API need an API key?\n\nBoth take an API key or an OAuth sign-in.\n\n### Can an agent call Azure AI Content Safety (Prompt Shields) and Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API without installing anything?\n\nYes. Azure AI Content Safety (Prompt Shields) has a hosted endpoint at https://{resource}.cognitiveservices.azure.com/contentsafety/text:shieldPrompt and Prisma AIRS AI Runtime Security API at https://service.api.aisecurity.paloaltonetworks.com/v1/scan/sync/request.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/azure-ai-content-safety-vs-prisma-airs.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/azure-ai-content-safety-vs-prisma-airs.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"azure-ai-content-safety\", \"b\": \"prisma-airs\"}`.
