SMARE — Behavioral Security for Enterprise AI Agents

    AI Agents Are Active.
    Are You Secure?

    SMARE secures enterprise AI agents by understanding their intended behavior, detecting behavioral drifts and policy violations, and investigating emerging risks with correlated evidence.

    The Security Gap

    Allowed does not mean intended

    Traditional controls establish identity, access and permissions. An AI agent can use valid credentials and approved tools while still acting beyond its intended business purpose.

    Traditional security asks

    • Who can access this system?
    • What data is being accessed?
    • What security event occurred?

    The behavioral security question

    Is this AI agent still behaving the way it was intended to?

    Existing security controls remain essential. SMARE adds behavioral security by detecting when an agent's observed actions deviate from its intended purpose—even when those actions are technically permitted.

    Discover & Contextualize

    Discover what you don't know exists

    SMARE continuously discovers and contextualizes enterprise AI—including Shadow AI—across supported data sources. By mapping applications, agents, tools, models, interactions, and ownership, SMARE establishes the context needed to identify behavioral security risks.

    You can't secure behavior you can't see or contextualize.

    Establish Trust Boundaries

    Define how your AI agents are expected to behave

    Once AI assets are discovered and contextualized, SMARE helps establish their trust boundaries through ownership, organizational policies, approved Design Intent, and behavioral baselines. These provide the reference against which observed behavior can be evaluated.

    Accountability
    Who owns this AI asset and who is responsible for decisions?
    Organizational Policies
    What models, MCP servers, tools and other components are approved?
    Approved Design Intent
    How is this agent expected to operate?
    Evidence Coverage
    Do we have sufficient evidence to evaluate behavior against established trust boundaries?

    Design Intent

    Establish how the agent is intended to operate

    Design Intent is the approved expression of why an agent exists, the outcomes it may pursue, the assets and actions it may use, and the constraints it must respect. It is established and approved — not inherited from permissions, and not the same as a behavioral baseline.

    What an approved Design Intent expresses

    Behavioral Security

    Detect and Investigate AI Behavioral Risks

    SMARE continuously analyzes AI agent behavior against organizational policies, approved Design Intent, and behavioral baselines. It detects meaningful deviations, correlates evidence, and investigates emerging risks to distinguish genuine security threats from benign changes.

    How SMARE Works

    Continuous Behavioral Security for AI Agents

    SMARE continuously collects and correlates evidence, establishes trusted behavioral expectations, detects deviations, and investigates emerging AI risks.

    Behavioral Security
    1. Collect

      Telemetry comes from supported AI, cloud, application, identity and security systems.

    2. Correlate

      Build agent-centric context across inventory, topology and execution.

    3. Establish Trust

      Establish accountability, define organizational policies, and approve Design Intent and behavioral baselines to set trusted behavioral expectations.

    4. Detect & Investigate

      Detect policy violations and behavioral drift, correlate evidence, and investigate emerging AI risks to support informed security decisions.

    Behavioral security is continuous. New agents, changing relationships, evolving behavior, and investigation outcomes continuously inform security context and trusted behavioral expectations.

    THE BEHAVIORAL SECURITY LAYER

    Close the AI Agent Behavioral Security Gap

    Your existing security stack provides essential controls for identity, access, infrastructure, data, and security events. SMARE complements these controls with behavioral security for enterprise AI agents — understanding intended behavior, detecting deviations, and investigating emerging risks using correlated evidence.
