Keeping AI Agents on Task: Check Point Advances AI Agent Safety with NVIDIA OpenShell Reference Architecture

Check Point Software Technologies published a reference architecture with NVIDIA, called OpenShell, aimed at governing how AI agents run and adding in-silicon security to AI infrastructure. Check Point said agents can access sensitive data, credentials and internal systems, or absorb untrusted content, and can do the wrong thing without any attacker involved. The architecture targets agent governance and runtime control rather than defending only against external attacks.

How Check Point and NVIDIA collaborate an agent governance, control over how they run, and in-silicon security built into the AI infrastructure Agents can go wrong without an attacker AI agents now plan, use tools, work with sensitive data and hand work to other agents. Their value comes from doing things nobody scripted step by step. That also creates a new kind of risk: an agent can follow every rule and still do the wrong thing. No attacker is needed. An agent can: Access sensitive data, credentials, or internal systems Absorb untrusted or misleading content as if it were a … The post Keeping AI Agents on Task: Check Point Advances AI Agent Safety with NVIDIA OpenShell Reference Architecture https://blog.checkpoint.com/ai-security/keeping-ai-agents-on-task-check-point-advances-ai-agent-safety-with-nvidia-openshell-reference-architecture/ appeared first on Check Point Blog https://blog.checkpoint.com .
