Issuing short-lived, task-scoped credentials on demand that expire when the work is done: eliminating standing access there's nothing to leak or over-grant.

LLM firewall
A checkpoint in front of a model that inspects prompts and responses for injection, sensitive data, and unsafe content. It guards the model's edge, not the agent's actions behind it.

LLM security tools
The stack that protects LLM applications: input/output filters, firewalls and gateways, runtime enforcement, red teaming, and observability. No single tool covers all five.

MCP (Model Context Protocol)
An open protocol that connects agents to external tools and data. Powerful for capability. But every connection is a new access path that has to be governed.

MCP Gateway
A governed checkpoint every tool connection passes through (authenticated, policy-checked, and logged) so credentials stay central and unapproved servers can't connect.

Mission drift
When a non-deterministic agent gradually diverges from its intended task. Tracked at runtime so it can be contained before consequences land.

Non-human identity (NHI)
Identities belonging to machines, services, and agents rather than people. Agents are the fastest-growing and least-governed class of NHI.
