Description
Agent Control represents a groundbreaking open-source framework designed to manage the behavior of AI agents on a large scale, setting a new benchmark for governance in this domain. It addresses the issue of disjointed and hardcoded checks by providing teams with a unified governance layer that enforces regulations at each step, all managed from a single control interface that can be updated dynamically without altering the agent's underlying code. Developers can easily designate any function as governable by applying the control() decorator, thereby transforming key decision points within an agent into independently regulated control points, each equipped with its own governance policies. When a decorated function runs, Agent Control assesses the input or output against the prevailing policy and generates a response that could be to deny, steer, warn, log, or allow the action. If a denial occurs, the SDK triggers a ControlViolationError, preventing any unsafe actions from being executed. This separation of policies from the actual code empowers developers to strategically position control hooks, while policy teams determine the enforcement specifics of those hooks, ensuring a collaborative approach to governance. The flexibility and robustness of Agent Control make it an invaluable tool for organizations looking to standardize AI agent governance effectively.
Description
NVIDIA OpenShell serves as an open and secure runtime environment specifically designed for autonomous AI agents, regulating their execution, access rights, and the pathways for inference traffic. Instead of embedding security within the model or application, it maintains safety measures in the surrounding environment, meaning that nothing is allowed by default; permissions are assigned through established policies, and enforcement mechanisms operate outside the agent process to prevent any circumvention via prompts. Each autonomous agent operates within a confined sandbox, which restricts direct network connectivity, limits file access, and implements kernel-level monitoring of system calls to ensure rigorous oversight. Acting as the control plane, a gateway is responsible for user authentication, lifecycle management of sandboxes, and the provision of policies, settings, credentials, and inference configurations to the agents. Additionally, a supervisor operates externally to each sandbox, scrutinizing network requests according to policies at various levels—including binary, destination, method, and path—and only grants access to credentials when explicitly permitted, thus enhancing the overall security framework. This layered architecture ensures that the agents function effectively while maintaining robust security protocols throughout their operations.
