Most AI agent security is focused on the prompt: prompt injection, model alignment, etc. But one prompt can turn into hundreds of actions: commands run, files read, APIs called, secrets touched. That's where the risk is. An agent doesn't need to be jailbroken to cause damage. It just needs to be helpful in the wrong direction. Recently, one agent hit a credential mismatch, found another token on the machine, and wiped a production database and every backup in 9 seconds. In his Ai4 2026 talk, "Actions Speak Louder Than Prompts," Turbot Founder & CEO Nathan Wallace covers: - Why sandboxes, AI gateways, and AI models reviewing each action each fall short on their own - How to judge each action in context, before it runs - Why agents route around blocks, and why an unreadable command is itself the signal - The five questions every security team should be able to answer today Watch the talk and read the write-up: https://lnkd.in/g_yjQC2u

Our Founder & CEO Nathan Wallace takes the #Ai4 Cybersecurity stage next week. "Actions Speak Louder Than Prompts: Governing What AI Agents Actually Do" Thursday, Aug 6th at 11:05AM, Marcello Ballroom 4402. An agent doesn't need to be jailbroken to cause damage. It just needs to be helpful in the wrong direction. Nathan will show why AI agents need a new control layer. Organizations need visibility into what an agent is about to do, what it will touch, and why, plus controls that evaluate its commands before they execute. Find us at booth 1527 before and after.

Introducing Turbot Guardian: Guardrails for Vibe Coding. You hardened your CI/CD, your cloud IAM, and every account in your org. Then your developers installed AI coding agents and handed them the keys to everything. Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Aider, Gemini, and Codex run with the developer's full access: they read your credentials, run shell commands, and reach production, often with no human in the loop and no record of what they did. Guardian brings EDR to AI coding agents: discover every agent and credential, see what they can reach, watch what they do, and control it with policy.

Launch Week 13, Day 3 is live! 🚀 Today: Keyless Connections with Workload Identity Federation. Every cloud connection used to mean a stored credential to create, secure, and rotate. Today Guardrails brings keyless connections to Azure and GCP with Workload Identity Federation: trust is anchored to the AWS identity Guardrails already runs as, so there is no client secret or key to store or rotate. One federated handshake brings an entire tenant or organization under governance, and every connection is recorded in AWS CloudTrail. Today's announcements: 🔑 Keyless Azure Connections with Workload Identity Federation https://lnkd.in/evSCrQuX 🔑 Keyless GCP Connections with Workload Identity Federation https://lnkd.in/edK84hpX More announcements tomorrow! #TurbotLaunchWeek #CloudSecurity #CloudGovernance #IAM #PreventiveSecurity

Preventive Security for AI Providers. Launch Week 13, Day 2 is live! 🚀 Teams are calling Anthropic and OpenAI APIs straight from production, and the configuration of those services carry real risk: who has access, stale API keys, and which models and data residency are allowed. Today we extend prevention-first security to the AI providers you consume: govern membership and invites, rotate API keys, and hold inference to approved models and data residency, enforced right at the provider API. Today's announcements 👇 🛡️ Preventive Security for Anthropic https://lnkd.in/eeJUZ8Dh 🛡️ Preventive Security for OpenAI https://lnkd.in/eJX9fcZ2 #TurbotLaunchWeek #CloudSecurity #AIsecurity #CloudGovernance #AIgovernance #PreventiveSecurity

Turbot Launch Week 13 is live! 🚀 Day 1: Preventive Security for Cloud AI Platforms. AI workloads are landing in production before security can review them. This week we bring the same prevention-first approach that protects the rest of your cloud to your AI platforms: govern approved models, enforce guardrails on every invocation, and correct drift automatically.
