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.

Observe
Evaluate
Decide
Approve / Deny
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.
