Trust by design
Keep people, permissions
and governance in control.
Enterprise agentic systems must respect access boundaries, produce traceable outputs and route consequential decisions to authorized reviewers.
A closer look
Designed to work
together.
01Security belongs in the workflow
Trust cannot be added as a final screen: authorization, data scoping, review and traceability must shape the architecture.
- Each agent acts with a defined identity and narrowly scoped tool permissions.
- Retrieval checks tenant, document and user entitlements before returning content.
- Changes to systems of record are subject to approvals, validation and transaction logging.
02Human oversight by design
The level of review should reflect the consequences of an error.
- Low-risk information tasks may return attributed answers with user feedback.
- Medium-risk tasks can require confidence checks, document comparison and exception queues.
- High-impact decisions must remain with authorized professionals under agreed controls.
03Operational assurance
A dependable deployment needs continuous evaluation, not a one-time demonstration.
- Monitor task success, groundedness, escalation rates, response time and cost.
- Test prompt injection, excessive tool permissions, retrieval leakage and unsafe actions.
- Define deployment-specific privacy, residency, retention and incident response requirements.
