# Can I customize or bring my own detectors?

Absolutely! In addition to the pre-built detectors, Firewall for AI allows you to create custom detectors tailored to your specific requirements. You can either fine-tune one of our pre-configured detection rules or build your own detector from scratch using our intuitive API. Nightfall supports many traditional detector types such as regular expressions, exact data matching, and word list/dictionaries. Check out our dedicated guide on creating custom detectors for more information.
