New: Malicious MCP server caught in the wild!

Visibility and control over unsanctioned AI use

Knostic discovers every agent, model, and AI tool running across your endpoints, attributes it to people and teams, and brings it under one policy. Employees keep innovating; you stay in control.

You cannot govern what you cannot see.

Developers and business users install agents, extensions, MCP servers, and skills from open ecosystems, faster than any approval process. Knostic finds them where they run, on the endpoint, rather than inferring from network logs.

How Shadow AI discovery works

Discover

Before Knostic

Developers and business users install and start using AI tools one after another. The security team's count stays at zero while the feed keeps filling.

After Knostic

Kirin's Shadow AI page fills in as each tool on the estate is discovered: installed tools, users, teams, and trend.

Govern

Before Knostic

Each discovered tool has its own settings and no shared policy. Governance is a spreadsheet.

After Knostic

Bring every tool under one policy with drift detection, so discovery turns into control.

Key capabilities

Endpoint-level discovery

Detect agents, assistants, extensions, MCP servers, and skills where they run, sanctioned or not.

Department and user mapping

See which teams and individuals use which tools and what they can reach.

Risk scoring

Highlight the highest-exposure tools and components for fast action, with AgentMesh verdicts.

Policy enforcement

Bring discovered tools under one policy without blocking legitimate experimentation.

Continuous monitoring

Stay current as new tools appear and usage evolves, with trend over time.

Inventory export

A register of AI systems for compliance and risk reporting.

Frequently asked questions

Kirin runs on the endpoint inside supported agents and sees the tools, extensions, servers, and skills actually installed and used, rather than inferring from network traffic.

No. Discovery is passive, and policy can run in Monitor mode before anything is enforced.

Yes. Discovered components are rated using AgentMesh verdicts and policy posture, so the highest risks surface first.

Yes. Discovery is continuous, with alerts as new tools or services appear.
