AI security for government agencies

Agencies are adopting AI assistants and coding agents to improve mission outcomes. Knostic keeps sensitive data protected, enforces agency policy inside every agent, and brings shadow and contractor AI under governance.

Mission integrity requires AI-aware guardrails.

Without controls at the action level, an agent can surface restricted information, install an unvetted component, or run a destructive command on a mission system. Knostic enforces policy before the action runs and provides the audit-ready reporting FedRAMP, NIST, and agency mandates expect.

How Knostic works for agencies

Shadow and contractor AI

Before Knostic

AI tools arrive through staff and contractors outside procurement and oversight. The agency cannot say what is in use.

After Knostic

Every agent and AI tool discovered and attributed by team and contractor, so usage comes under governance.

Protected systems

Before Knostic

An agent runs a destructive command against a mission system and reports success.

After Knostic

The action is denied before execution and logged as prevented, with full context.

Vetted components

Before Knostic

A skill or extension from an open marketplace carries a hidden instruction and exfiltrates data.

After Knostic

AgentMesh rates every component. Kirin blocks the dangerous ones before install.

One policy for the agency

Before Knostic

Each office and contractor configures agents differently. Coverage cannot be attested.

After Knostic

One policy enforced across every agent, with drift flagged and coverage visible.

Key capabilities

Shadow AI discovery

Uncover unsanctioned AI adoption across staff and contractors.

Action guardrails

Block destructive and data-moving agent actions before execution.

Supply-chain verdicts

Skills, MCP servers, and extensions scanned and rated.

Agency-wide policy

One policy across offices, teams, and contractors, with drift detection.

Audit-ready reporting

Decision logs and inventory aligned to NIST controls and agency requirements.

Sensitive data protection

Restricted information and credentials caught before they leave the agent.

Frequently asked questions

By providing continuous monitoring of agent actions, enforced governance, and audit-ready logs aligned to security controls. Ask us about authorization status for your deployment model.

Yes. Policies govern what agents may read and do, and sensitive-data detection catches restricted content in prompts and outputs.

Yes. Kirin discovers agents and AI tools in use and attributes them to users and teams, bringing usage under governance.

Contractor teams run under their own policy group, with the same discovery, enforcement, and logging as staff.
