We give it to them.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Agents act with delegated authority: they read data, take actions, and call other agents. Regulated firms should not deploy them without identity, oversight, and audit. We implement Microsoft&#8217;s Security for AI framework, scoped to your platforms and licensing.<\/p>\n<h2>What We Implement<\/h2>\n<h3>Agent 365 Deployment<\/h3>\n<p>Agent registry, onboarding and approval workflow, blocking of unknown agents, and quarantine for supported Copilot Studio agents. Agent 365 becomes your control plane for observing, securing, and governing AI agents.<\/p>\n<h3>Entra Agent ID<\/h3>\n<p>Agent identities and least-privilege permissions assigned by agent type, with Conditional Access where supported. Your agents get the same identity discipline as your people.<\/p>\n<h3>Purview for AI<\/h3>\n<p>DSPM for AI discovery, DLP on supported prompts and responses, and audit plus eDiscovery of covered AI interactions. Your compliance evidence comes from a system, not a scramble.<\/p>\n<h3>Threat Protection for AI<\/h3>\n<p>Defender XDR, Defender for Cloud Apps, and Entra protections configured for prompt injection, jailbreaks, and agent misuse on supported paths.<\/p>\n<h3>Custom Agents, Secured by Design<\/h3>\n<p>Builds on Microsoft Foundry and the Agent Framework SDK with Purview middleware implemented in the build, so policy enforcement and compliance logging ship with the agent.<\/p>\n<h2>Scoped to Your Licensing, Priced Before You Commit<\/h2>\n<p>Licensing prerequisites such as Agent 365 seats, Microsoft 365 E5 or E7, Purview pay-as-you-go, and Entra entitlements are identified in the assessment before you commit. Coverage is documented in an explicit matrix, not assumed. Available as a fixed-scope engagement through Azure Marketplace.<\/p>\n<h2>The Extended AI Edge<\/h2>\n<p>Microsoft governs AI natively: Purview discovers and protects AI data flows, Entra inspects AI traffic on supported paths, and Agent 365 governs your agents. Some regulated environments need more reach. Through a strategic platform partnership, we extend the same Purview policies to deployment scenarios beyond the native envelope:<\/p>\n<h3>Full-Conversation Capture Across Supported AI Services<\/h3>\n<p>For traffic routed through the integrated edge, prompts, responses, and file transfers to listed AI services are captured and policy-controlled, with findings forwarded natively into Microsoft Purview for compliance review.<\/p>\n<h3>Remote Browser Isolation<\/h3>\n<p>Optional isolation executes supported web sessions in a disposable cloud browser and streams a rendered view, keeping unvetted AI tools and risky links off the endpoint.<\/p>\n<h3>Coverage for Devices the Native Clients Do Not Reach<\/h3>\n<p>ChromeOS and agentless branch or guest scenarios receive the same AI usage policy through network enforcement, with identity attribution documented per scenario.<\/p>\n<h3>Customer-Hosted Enforcement<\/h3>\n<p>The same policy engine runs as containerized gateways in your Azure tenancy or as on-premises appliances for data-residency requirements, managed under one policy plane and deployed through Azure Marketplace.<\/p>\n<p>Supported apps, devices, traffic paths, data handling, and licensing are validated during assessment, and the coverage matrix ships with the proposal.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<h3>Can you control AI tools that aren&#8217;t Microsoft Copilot?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. Microsoft Purview and Entra provide native discovery and data controls for supported AI apps and network paths. Where more reach is needed, our integrated Zero Trust edge captures and policy-controls conversations with listed AI services on additional devices and traffic paths, and findings integrate with Microsoft Purview. Supported services and platforms are confirmed in a coverage matrix during assessment.<\/p>\n<h3>What is shadow AI and how do you find it?<\/h3>\n<p>Shadow AI is AI usage your IT team has not sanctioned: a free chatbot, an AI feature added to a SaaS tool, a desktop AI assistant. We discover it using Microsoft&#8217;s network and catalog signals, extended where needed by signatureless detection at the integrated edge, then route findings into your governance process for a sanction-or-block decision.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/contact\/\">Book an AI Security Posture Assessment<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI Security &amp; Agent Governance Your agents need the same discipline as your employees.
