AI Agent Runtime Security

Runtime security for AI agents

Discover shadow agents, bind them to identity and policy, enforce risky actions outside the agent, and produce audit-ready evidence for every decision.

AI agents now act with real authority

They use tools, credentials, APIs, cloud roles, Kubernetes workloads, files, network destinations, and provider actions. Prompt guardrails are not enough.

Credentials & APIs

Agents access tools, APIs, cloud roles, and provider actions with enterprise credentials.

Bypassed Guardrails

Compromised prompts, tools, or agent logic can bypass app-layer controls.

Shadow Agents

Unapproved agents create unmanaged infrastructure risk across the enterprise.

Evidence Required

Regulated organizations need proof that controls operated, not just policy documents.

Prompt guardrails are not enough

Application-layer guardrails depend on the agent behaving correctly. Vigilis enforces policy outside the agent.

Application Guardrails

Depend on the agent behaving correctly
Can be bypassed by prompt injection, compromised tools, or agent logic
Have limited visibility into runtime behavior
Are hard to prove to auditors

Vigilis Runtime Security

Enforces outside the agent
Observes tools, files, processes, network, cloud, SaaS, and identity-provider activity
Holds, denies, allows, or contains risky actions
Produces ledger-backed evidence

What Vigilis Proves

Six questions every regulated enterprise must answer about their AI agents.

Which agents exist

Discover all AI agents including shadow and unapproved deployments.

Who owns them

Track ownership, environment, and organizational accountability.

What identity or credential they use

Map agents to enterprise identity, shared-service-account risk, and runtime trust posture.

What policy governs them

Associate each agent with a policy bundle and enforcement configuration.

What runtime actions were allowed, held, or blocked

Track every decision: allow, hold for approval, deny, or contain.

What evidence proves the control operated

Generate ledger-backed evidence packs for audit and incident review.

Make every agent governable

Comprehensive visibility and control across the entire AI agent lifecycle.

Shadow Agent Discovery

Find registered and shadow AI agents across enterprise environments automatically.

Agent Identity Governance

Track owner, environment, mapped enterprise identity, shared-service-account risk, policy bundle, and runtime trust posture.

Runtime Policy Enforcement

Allow, deny, require approval, or contain risky actions in real time outside the agent.

Human Approval Workflow

Route high-risk actions to human reviewers before execution with full context.

Runtime Containment

Isolate compromised or misbehaving agents without disrupting other workloads.

Audit-Ready Evidence

Generate evidence packs for governance, incident review, and regulatory audits.

Multi-plane runtime enforcement

Enforcement outside the agent across provider, Kubernetes, endpoint, and kernel planes.

AI Agent

Provider Guard

Kubernetes Guard

Endpoint Guard

Kernel Enforcer

Evidence Ledger

Provider Guard

Controls cloud, SaaS, and identity-provider actions such as secrets, roles, tokens, and privileged changes.

Kubernetes Guard

Admission control, workload-scoped rollout, and sidecar egress mediation.

Endpoint Guard

Caller-shim and signed offline policy cache for host-level runtime control.

Kernel Enforcer

BPF/LSM enforcement path for Linux file and process controls.

Evidence Ledger

Tamper-evident chain of decisions, approvals, and enforcement outcomes.

From risky action to auditable decision

Every agent action flows through a governed decision pipeline.

Record Evidence

Example: External Data Transmission

An agent attempts to send data to an external webhook. Vigilis identifies the action, evaluates policy and risk, requires human approval, records the decision, and preserves the evidence trail.

Built for regulated AI adoption

Accelerate enterprise AI adoption without relying only on prompt guardrails.

Reduce shadow AI risk

Prevent over-authorized agents from misusing tools and credentials

Prove runtime controls are operating

Support audit, compliance, and incident review

Accelerate enterprise AI adoption without relying only on prompt guardrails

Framework-Aligned Evidence for AI Agent Governance
