Runtime Governance for Enterprise AI

AI agents and vendor-hosted AI systems can act autonomously, call tools, and move data across enterprise boundaries. Most organizations have principles and oversight processes, but no technical control point once AI is deployed.

Govern AI at execution time

Control third-party AI systems

Immutable audit trail

Complete compliance records

The Problem

AI governance today is mostly advisory.

Enterprises face growing risk from:

  • Internal AI agents acting without clear execution boundaries
  • Vendor-hosted AI systems outside direct control
  • No unified way to enforce which models, tools, or services AI can access
  • Incomplete auditability when legal, security, or regulators ask what happened

Policies exist. Enforcement does not.

The Problem - AI Governance Challenges

Control AI at Runtime

Enforce policy, access, and auditability at execution time.

Govern every agent action before it reaches models, tools, or vendors.

With Kavora, organizations can:

  • Control model and tool access
  • Enforce policy across agents and vendors
  • Change behavior without redeploys
  • Capture an immutable audit trail
What Kavora Does - Runtime Enforcement Layer

All AI execution passes through Kavora first.

Kavora treats AI like production infrastructure, not an experiment.

How It Works

(Conceptually)

Kavora inserts a governed control plane between AI systems and the resources they interact with.

STEP 1

Controlled boundary

AI agents operate within a controlled execution boundary

STEP 2

Policy mediation

Outbound calls to models, tools, and services are mediated by policy

STEP 3

Audit + investigation

All activity is logged for audit, investigation, and compliance

Unauthorized actions are blocked or safely degraded

This approach mirrors how network security evolved from guidelines to firewalls.

Why This Matters Now

AI systems are moving from decision support to autonomous execution.

That shift creates new enterprise risk:

  • Execution without approval
  • Data movement without visibility
  • Vendor AI without enforceable constraints

Organizations need governance that works after deployment, not just before.

Who Kavora Is For - Enterprise AI Leaders

Our Philosophy

  • Governance should be enforceable, not aspirational
  • Runtime control beats static review
  • Visibility comes before deep inspection
  • Enterprises should retain control without slowing innovation

Kavora is designed to start lightweight and scale enforcement as trust and requirements mature.
