AgentRiskLayer

Evidence before verdict

We don't ask the model whether your agent is secure.

We prove what it can actually do.

For AI agents using tools, APIs, MCP servers, repositories, credentials or business systems. Scope is agreed before any testing.

The problem

Safe output is not the same as safe action.

An agent can produce a harmless-looking answer while still holding authority to call a privileged tool, change data, reach a production system or trigger a high-impact workflow. AgentRiskLayer assesses the action boundary, not just the conversation.

01 / Access

What can it reach?

Tools, APIs, MCP servers, repositories, credentials, data stores and connected business systems.

02 / Authority

What can it actually do?

Which actions are permitted, constrained, approval-gated or blocked when the agent attempts them.

03 / Proof

What proves the conclusion?

Recorded behaviour, exact test conditions and evidence linked to the affected security control.

One authoritative chain

From agent action to accountable decision.

  1. 1. ExerciseA defined instruction exercises an agreed security boundary.
  2. 2. ObserveWe record what the agent attempts and what the downstream system permits.
  3. 3. PreserveTool calls, arguments, control behaviour and test conditions become evidence.
  4. 4. SeparateObservation is not automatically promoted into a finding, PASS or FAIL.
  5. 5. ReviewEvidence is reviewed against the scoped controls and authority boundary.
  6. 6. RetestAfter remediation, the affected boundary is tested again under defined conditions.

Security authority

The model can help exercise the system. It does not get to declare the system secure.

AgentRiskLayer deliberately separates orchestration, evidence, authoritative security conclusions and the final accountable decision.

A concrete question

What happens when your agent tries the thing you hope it cannot do?

That is where an ARL assessment starts. We agree the boundary, exercise it under controlled conditions, preserve what happened and connect the evidence to a human-reviewed security conclusion.
