Identity, owner, purpose, risk and lifecycle context established.
A managed service, powered by Gamut
We manage how your AI agents are allowed to act.
Gamut Assure operates the agent authority control layer for you. We assess each agent, configure Gateway, manage authority policy, test the controls, review decisions and give you an auditable record of what happened.
You do not have to build or run the control plane alone.Your team retains business ownership. We operate the agent-specific governance and runtime controls within an agreed service scope, with clear responsibilities, gated rollout and evidence at every stage.

Managed end to end
We operate the control path from agent registration to decision evidence.
Every proposed tool action carries context through a zero-trust decision path. Gateway verifies the request, resolves the permitted authority route and prevents execution when the required conditions are absent.
One governed route for consequential actions
The moving signal shows an action request progressing through identity, policy, authority, execution and evidence controls.
Agent, session, tool, action, target and exact payload presented.
Tenant, workspace, permissions, runtime health and boundaries checked.
Risk, tool, data, approval and control requirements applied.
Delegated authority, eligible human decision or mandatory block.
Only the authorised action proceeds through the governed route.
Decision, authority, expiry, outcome and lifecycle events recorded.
Tenant and workspace isolation
Agent and session binding
Tool and action allowlists
Target and runtime context
Exact-payload integrity
Conditional delegated authority
Eligible human approval
Short-lived single-use warrants

The control gap
An agent can be useful without being trusted with everything it can reach.
The risk begins when an agent moves from generating an answer to invoking a tool, changing a record, sending a message, moving data or administering a system. Static policies cannot make that runtime decision. Gamut turns approved authority into an enforceable control boundary.
Agents inherit excessive access
Direct tool credentials can give an agent more authority than its purpose, owner or risk classification justifies.
Approval alone is not enough
Some actions need a human decision. Others should proceed under bounded delegated authority. Prohibited actions should never proceed.
Evidence arrives too late
Without a decision trail, teams struggle to prove what the agent requested, why it was permitted and what authority was used.
What we manage
A working authority control system, not another policy document.
Gamut combines senior governance judgement with an operating platform and runtime enforcement layer. We establish the control model, configure it, test it and keep it reviewable as the agent changes.
Agent inventory and ownership
Record identity, accountable owners, intended purpose, lifecycle state and deployment context.
Risk and maturity assessment
Classify capability risk and assess the controls required before the agent receives greater autonomy.
Tool and credential boundaries
Map tools, actions, targets and credentials so authority can be constrained to the intended task.
Runtime policy
Translate approved authority into rules Gateway evaluates before a consequential action proceeds.
Delegated authority
Permit repeatable low-risk actions within explicit scope, conditions, time and usage boundaries.
Human decisions
Route defined consequential actions to eligible approvers through Gamut AUTHORISE.
Control testing
Exercise policy, approval, payload-binding, expiry and replay controls before expanding authority.
Evidence and review
Review decisions, exceptions, findings and material changes through a traceable governance record.
How runtime control works
Agents request authority. Gateway decides whether the action has it.
The model can reason in any approved environment. It does not need unrestricted possession of consequential tool credentials. Gateway evaluates the proposed action against the governance context and the exact request presented.
The Gamut authority control loop
Governance context and runtime enforcement remain connected throughout the agent lifecycle.
An identified agent requests a defined tool action.
Identity, session, tool, action, target, payload and policy are evaluated.
Gateway identifies delegated authority, mandatory approval or a blocker.
Only the authorised action proceeds through the governed route.
The decision, authority route and lifecycle events remain reviewable.
ALLOW within delegated authority
HOLD for eligible human authority
BLOCK when authority is absent
Controlled adoption
Move from visibility to enforcement without taking an unnecessary leap.
The service progresses through explicit gates. Production authority is expanded only when the evidence, controls and customer decision support it.
Baseline
Understand the agent before governing its actions.
- Identity, owner and purpose
- Tools, data and credentials
- Risk and control assessment
- Target authority model
Observe
Evaluate proposed actions without enabling consequential execution.
- Advisory or shadow decisions
- Policy tuning
- Approval-route testing
- Readiness evidence
Enforce
Activate bounded runtime controls for the agreed workflow.
- Delegated authority
- Human approval gates
- Mandatory blocks
- Exact-request enforcement
Manage
Keep the authority model current as the agent evolves.
- Decision review
- Control testing
- Change assessment
- Governance reporting
Your first engagement is a bounded control baseline.
You receive a documented view of the agent, its authority exposure, the control design and the conditions required for a managed pilot.
Clear responsibilities
Managed does not mean opaque.
Gamut operates the agent-specific governance and authority controls within an agreed service boundary. The customer retains ownership of its systems, business decisions and wider security environment.
Gamut manages
- Agent governance and authority baseline
- Gateway policy and approval-route configuration
- Defined runtime control testing
- Decision and exception review
- Control recommendations and governance reporting
- Reassessment after agreed material changes
Your organisation retains
- Business ownership and risk acceptance
- Source systems, data and tool administration
- Secure agent engineering and model operation
- Enterprise IAM, monitoring and incident response
- Approval of production scope and authority
- Legal, regulatory and contractual decisions
Gamut Managed Agent Control is an agent governance and runtime authority service. It does not replace enterprise identity, endpoint protection, a security operations centre, legal advice or the customer's accountability for its AI systems.
Who it is for
For teams moving agents from promising prototypes into real operations.
Your agent needs access to customer systems
Add an external authority layer without rebuilding the agent inside Gamut.
Agents are arriving faster than the control model
Create ownership, policy, approvals and runtime evidence before access expands.
Your customers need safe deployment, not only a prototype
Pair your agent delivery with a governed authority and assurance layer.
You do not have a dedicated agent security function
Begin with a managed service rather than staffing and operating the control plane alone.
Buyers expect evidence of agent control
Connect the operating design to reviewable decisions, tests, findings and authority records.
Different agents need different levels of autonomy
Apply purpose, maturity, tool and risk context instead of one universal permission model.
Frequently asked questions
What buyers usually need to know.
Does every agent action require human approval?
No. Gateway can allow actions under defined delegated authority, hold specified consequential actions for an eligible human decision, or block actions that do not satisfy policy. The authority route is selected from the agent, action and risk context.
Can Gamut govern agents built outside the platform?
Yes. Existing agents and external runtimes can request actions through governed Gamut endpoints. They do not need to be rebuilt inside Gamut, but consequential execution must use the controlled route if Gateway is to enforce the policy.
Do agents still connect to tools?
The agent can discover and request approved tools, but the preferred design keeps consequential credentials and execution behind the governed service. The agent requests an action and Gateway decides whether that exact request has valid authority.
How are credentials handled?
Credential architecture is agreed for each integration. The zero-trust pattern avoids giving an external agent unrestricted possession of high-impact tool credentials. Credentials are scoped, revocable and used only through the approved execution path wherever the target integration permits it.
Can we start without connecting production systems?
Yes. The normal route begins with a baseline and advisory or shadow decisions. Synthetic data, non-production targets and reversible workflows can be used before any production authority is considered.
What happens when an agent changes its payload?
Authority can be bound to the exact request. A material payload, target or scope change produces a different decision context and cannot silently reuse an approval issued for another action.
Does this replace our IAM, SIEM or security operations team?
No. Gamut adds agent-specific identity, purpose, authority, tool, approval and runtime decision context. It complements the customer's identity, monitoring, incident response and wider security controls.
Is this a 24-hour managed security operations service?
Not by default. Monitoring, support hours, escalation and response commitments are defined in the service scope. Continuous operational coverage can be designed with an appropriate delivery partner where required.
What does Gamut Assure manage for us?
We establish the agent governance baseline, configure Gateway policy and authority routes, test the agreed controls, review decisions and exceptions, and report material changes that need your attention. Your organisation retains ownership of its systems, data, production approval and business risk decisions.
What is the first commercial step?
We scope one agent and one consequential workflow. The initial engagement establishes the authority baseline, integration assumptions, control design, evidence gaps and the conditions required for a managed pilot.
Start with one agent
Show us the action you need to control.
Tell us what the agent does, which tools it uses and what could happen if its authority is wrong. We will use the first conversation to determine whether a bounded control baseline is appropriate.
- No estate-wide commitment
- No production connection during initial scoping
- Clear service and security boundary
