New: Malicious MCP server caught in the wild!

Secure AI agents across critical energy infrastructure

Engineering, operations, and corporate teams in energy are adopting coding assistants and AI agents. Knostic keeps those agents from touching systems they should not, installing components nobody vetted, or shipping sensitive operational data out.

Reliability and safety do not tolerate an agent's mistake.

In energy, a destructive command or a leaked configuration has consequences beyond the IT estate. Knostic checks every agent action against policy before it runs, keeps the agentic supply chain vetted, and gives you the audit trail NERC CIP and your regulators expect.

How Knostic works in energy

Protected systems

Before Knostic

An agent asked to clean up data runs a destructive command against a system that matters, and reports success.

After Knostic

Destructive and out-of-scope actions are denied inline, with the alert routed to the security team as prevented.

Vetted components

Before Knostic

A developer's agent installs an extension that reuses known malicious code. It reaches a network segment that should have been isolated.

After Knostic

AgentMesh rates every skill, MCP server, and extension, and Kirin blocks the dangerous ones before install.

One policy across the estate

Before Knostic

Different sites, contractors, and teams run agents with different settings. Coverage is unknown.

After Knostic

One policy applied to every agent, drift flagged, coverage visible by site and team.

Key capabilities

Action guardrails

Block destructive, data-moving, or out-of-scope agent actions before execution.

Supply-chain verdicts

Scan skills, MCP servers, and extensions for malicious behaviour and supply-chain risk.

Shadow AI discovery

See every agent and AI tool in use across corporate, engineering, and contractor teams.

Secret and data protection

Credentials and sensitive operational data caught before they leave the agent.

Audit-ready logs

Decision logs that support NERC CIP, ISO 27001, and internal control evidence.

Fits existing controls

Feeds SIEM and extends DLP into AI workflows.

Frequently asked questions

No. Knostic runs inside the agents your people use on IT endpoints and governs what those agents may do. It never sits in the OT path.

By providing an inventory of AI tools, enforced controls on agent actions, and logs of every decision, which support the evidence your compliance program needs. It is not a certification.

Yes. Policies apply per group, so contractor and vendor teams run under their own allowances.

Kirin installs as a plugin or extension in supported agents. Discovery data arrives within hours.
