Guardrails inspect and control the requests and responses that flow through your AWS Bedrock LLM providers. Learn how they work, create one, review blocked requests, and look up the available policies.

-   [How Guardrails Work](overview/)

    Learn how ADP guardrails use AWS Bedrock policies to inspect and control LLM requests and responses, and how a blocked request surfaces.

-   [Create a Guardrail](create-guardrail/)

    Create a guardrail with the wizard, configure its Bedrock authentication and policies, attach it to a Bedrock LLM provider, and verify that it blocks.

-   [Review Blocked Requests](violations/)

    Understand how a blocked request surfaces, where guardrail activity is recorded, and what to check when a guardrail blocks too much or too little.

-   [Guardrail Policy Reference](types-reference/)

    Reference for the guardrail policy types, their configuration fields, actions, directions, and limits.
