Enterprise AI Agent Governance

Sentinel Gate
Enforce. Classify. Prove.

"Policies exist. Proof does not. We change that."

A customer-managed enforcement gateway deployed inside your own Azure subscription — governing every AI agent action: classifying sensitive data, enforcing policy, generating exportable audit evidence, and providing an instant kill switch. Your environment. Your keys. Your evidence.

The Missing Piece Is Infrastructure

Regulated enterprises are deploying AI agents at scale — without enforceable controls at the point where agents act. The gap is not technical. It is structural — and it is growing.

Governance Without Enforcement

AI policies exist in documents, not in systems. When a Copilot Studio agent accesses sensitive data, drafts customer communications, or triggers downstream workflows, there is no technical enforcement point — and no record that policy was followed.

Claims Without Proof

When a regulator or auditor asks what controls govern your AI systems, the answer almost every enterprise gives today is a description of intentions. There are no exportable artifacts showing what was blocked, classified, approved, or evidenced. Dashboards exist. Proof does not.

Infrastructure, Not a Dashboard

Policy Enforcement Engine

Every agent request is evaluated before any AI model is called. Decisions are four-valued: ALLOW, BLOCK, HOLD FOR APPROVAL, or PROCEED WITH ATTESTATION. Policies are versioned, auditable, and configurable through a web UI — no code required for daily operations.

Classification & Redaction

Before any payload reaches an AI model, Sentinel Gate detects sensitive content — PII, financial data, credentials, health information, custom-defined categories. Sensitive fields are replaced with typed tokens. The model never sees the data. The evidence pack records exactly what was found and removed.

Evidence Packs

Every governed request produces a signed, exportable JSON artifact — containing request metadata, the policy version in effect, classification summary, decision and reason codes, approval chain, and kill switch state. Not a log entry. An audit-grade artifact designed for regulators and external auditors, exportable in bulk.

Kill Switch & Observe Mode

An instant, scoped kill switch contains risk in under 30 seconds — globally, per provider, or per agent — with full evidence of the containment event. Observe Mode deploys governance from day one without blocking any workflows: full evidence generation, zero disruption, progressive enforcement on your schedule.

Built for Buyers Who Are Already Under Pressure

Sentinel Gate is not a research investment or a roadmap item. It is for regulated enterprises whose AI governance problem is already on the desk — not on the calendar. The CISO who cannot pass an AI governance audit. The compliance officer who needs evidence for regulators, not a dashboard. The IT leader whose Copilot deployment has stalled because security said no.

These buyers have both the urgency and the budget. The governance window is open.
