AI AGENT SECURITY

AI agents act.
You stay in control.

Every tool you connect gives an AI agent more reach. Oktsec checks each action against your policies and keeps a verifiable record of the decision.

Built for real-world agent work.

Meet Oktsec
in Barranquilla.

Oktsec founder Gustavo Aragón has been selected to participate in the 24th Americas Competitiveness Exchange (ACE), convened by the Organization of American States (OAS) in partnership with the City of Barranquilla.

Let’s talk about securing the AI agents your team is building or deploying.

A NEW KIND OF ACCESS

Connected agents
can change real systems.

Tools give agents access to code, records and infrastructure.
That access needs explicit permissions.

01 / THE REACH

An agent can complete the task
and still exceed its authority.

An agent asked to investigate a problem may try to change production to resolve it. Access to a tool does not authorize every action it exposes. Malicious content can also redirect that access.

Checkout diagnosticsExample scope
Checkout error logsRead-only
Restart serviceRestricted
Production secretsRestricted
02 / THE BOUNDARY

Set limits on tools,
data transfers and actions.

Check requests against configured permissions before they proceed. Record the requested action, the policy decision and the reason so your team can review what happened.

Clear boundaries.

Customer data, production credentials and destructive changes.
Put authority at the point where an agent can cause harm.

An instruction hidden in a support ticket redirects an agent toward a customer data export.

AGENT SECURITY IN PRACTICE

Put agents to work.
Keep authority with your team.

Investigate the outage. Review the proposed change.

The agent reads checkout error logs and proposes restarting a service. The restart may help, but it falls outside the investigation. Your engineers review the evidence and authorize any production change through a separate process.

AI RED TEAMING / ASSESSMENT

What can your agent do
without another approval?

Choose a workflow that touches sensitive data or production systems. We test its access limits, approval requirements and possible bypasses within an agreed scope, then deliver reproduction steps and recommended fixes.

  1. 01
    Scope

    Define the agents, tools and systems to test.

  2. 02

Deployment and
security questions.

How requests are checked, where oktsec runs and how to verify the audit trail.

Explore deployment
01

Where does oktsec run?

At the points between an agent and the tools or systems it can access. Depending on the workflow, that can be a local MCP proxy, a gateway or an HTTP service. Actions routed through oktsec are checked before they proceed.

02

Does an LLM make the security decision?

No. The enforcement pipeline is deterministic. It evaluates identity, permissions and content against configured policy. A model does not decide whether an action is authorized.

03

Do we need to replace our agent tools?

You can keep your agent clients and MCP servers. Oktsec can wrap MCP server connections or sit in the request path as a gateway. The initial assessment identifies where the control belongs in your workflow.

04

What happens when an action breaks policy?

Depending on the policy and severity, oktsec can flag and log the request, quarantine it for human review or block it. The audit record connects the request to the decision and the rules involved.

05

When should we review agent permissions?

Review permissions when you add a tool or connector, change credentials or expand a task. Check the new access paths and test which actions can run without approval. A previous assessment covers the configuration tested at that time.

06

Can we verify evidence independently?

Yes. Audit records form a tamper-evident hash chain. When a node key is configured, records are also signed and can be verified offline with the public key.

07

What should we start with?

Choose one workflow that touches code, tools, credentials or infrastructure. Define its scope, test the execution path and use the findings to decide where to apply control.
