Intercepts and validates AI agent actions before execution by implementing a middleware layer that inspects tool calls, API requests, and state mutations against configurable security policies. Uses a hook-based architecture to wrap agent execution pipelines, enabling real-time inspection of intent, parameters, and side effects without modifying core agent logic.
Unique: Implements action interception at the middleware layer rather than post-hoc monitoring, enabling preventive blocking before agents execute dangerous operations. Uses declarative policy definitions that can be composed and reused across multiple agents without code changes.
vs alternatives: Provides real-time action blocking before execution (not just logging after), whereas most agent monitoring tools only audit completed actions retroactively
Validates tool/function calls against JSON schemas and enforces parameter constraints (type, range, format, allowlists) before agents invoke external APIs or tools. Implements schema-aware validation that checks not just type correctness but also business logic constraints like rate limits, resource quotas, and parameter dependencies.
Unique: Combines JSON schema validation with business logic constraint enforcement in a single pipeline, allowing declarative definition of both type safety and domain-specific rules (quotas, allowlists, dependencies) without custom code per tool.
vs alternatives: Goes beyond simple type checking to enforce business constraints like rate limits and resource quotas, whereas standard JSON schema validation only checks structure and type
Monitors agent execution patterns and detects anomalous behavior by tracking metrics like action frequency, resource consumption, error rates, and decision patterns over time. Uses statistical baselines and rule-based heuristics to identify deviations that may indicate agent malfunction, adversarial prompting, or security incidents.
Unique: Implements continuous behavior monitoring with statistical baseline comparison rather than static rule-based detection, enabling detection of subtle deviations that fixed rules would miss. Tracks multi-dimensional metrics (frequency, latency, error rate, resource consumption) to build composite anomaly scores.
vs alternatives: Detects behavioral anomalies through statistical analysis of execution patterns, whereas simple rule-based monitoring only catches explicit policy violations
Enforces fine-grained access control by binding agents to specific resources, APIs, and capabilities based on identity, role, or context. Implements a capability-based security model where agents receive a scoped set of allowed tools and resources, with enforcement at the invocation layer preventing access to unbound capabilities.
Unique: Uses capability-based security model where agents receive explicit grants of allowed tools rather than checking permissions at invocation time, enabling efficient enforcement and clear visibility into agent capabilities. Supports context-aware binding where capabilities can vary based on tenant, user, or execution context.
vs alternatives: Implements capability-based security (explicit grants) rather than permission-based (implicit allows), providing stronger isolation guarantees and clearer audit trails
Detects and mitigates prompt injection attacks by analyzing user inputs and agent prompts for suspicious patterns, embedded instructions, or attempts to override system prompts. Uses pattern matching, semantic analysis, and heuristics to identify injection attempts before they reach the LLM, with optional sanitization or rejection of suspicious inputs.
Unique: Implements multi-layered injection detection combining pattern matching for known attack vectors with heuristic analysis for novel attempts, rather than relying on a single detection method. Can operate in detection-only mode (logging) or enforcement mode (blocking/sanitizing).
vs alternatives: Provides proactive injection detection before inputs reach the LLM, whereas most agent security focuses on output filtering after the LLM has already processed potentially malicious inputs
Filters and moderates agent outputs before they are returned to users or trigger external actions, checking for harmful content, sensitive data leakage, policy violations, or format violations. Implements a moderation pipeline that can reject, sanitize, or flag outputs based on configurable rules and optional integration with content moderation APIs.
Unique: Implements post-generation output filtering with multiple moderation strategies (pattern-based, API-based, custom rules) that can be composed and weighted, rather than relying on a single moderation approach. Supports both rejection and sanitization modes.
vs alternatives: Provides comprehensive output moderation including data leakage detection and policy compliance checking, whereas most agent security focuses primarily on harmful content filtering
Records comprehensive audit logs of all agent actions, decisions, and security events with immutable storage and compliance-ready reporting. Captures action details (what, who, when, why), security decisions (approved/rejected, reason), and context (user, tenant, resource) in a structured format suitable for compliance audits and forensic analysis.
Unique: Implements structured audit logging with compliance-ready reporting, capturing not just actions but also security decisions and context in a format suitable for regulatory audits. Supports multiple log destinations and formats for integration with compliance tools.
vs alternatives: Provides compliance-focused audit logging with structured data and reporting, whereas generic application logging typically lacks the compliance context and formatting needed for regulatory audits
Enforces rate limits and resource quotas on agent actions to prevent abuse, resource exhaustion, and uncontrolled costs. Implements multiple rate-limiting strategies (token bucket, sliding window, quota-based) with per-agent, per-user, or per-resource granularity, with configurable thresholds and backoff behavior.
Unique: Implements flexible rate limiting with multiple strategies (token bucket, sliding window, quota-based) and granular scoping (per-agent, per-user, per-resource), allowing fine-tuned control over agent resource consumption. Supports both hard limits (rejection) and soft limits (backoff/throttling).
vs alternatives: Provides multi-strategy rate limiting with granular scoping, whereas most agent frameworks only support simple per-agent rate limits without resource-level or cost-based control
