Threat Intelligence

What Argus Stops

Prompt Injection

Detects attempts to hijack agent behavior through crafted inputs embedded in tool descriptions and outputs.

Data Exfiltration

Blocks silent extraction of sensitive data through agent channels, including multi-tool exfiltration chains.

Lateral Movement

Identifies cross-server and cross-tool traversal patterns through graph analysis and behavioral baselines.

Shadow Agents

Surfaces unregistered AI agents operating outside governance via protocol detection and a first-seen registration model.

Privilege Escalation

Catches agents exceeding their authorized scope with policy rules, tool risk scoring, and credential analysis.

Tool Poisoning

Flags malicious or manipulated tool descriptions before execution via schema drift detection and risk scoring.

Every request is classified, scored, and enforced before it reaches its destination.

How It Works

10-Step Inspection Pipeline

Every message passes through a 10-step inline pipeline before reaching its destination.

Platform

The Argus Stack

Gateway

Inline reverse proxy. Inspects MCP traffic today; OpenAI and Anthropic codecs in pilot. Enforces verdicts within a 100 ms fail-closed timeout.

API

Control plane. REST + gRPC. Policy engine, approvals, event recording, SIEM export.

Sentinel

Endpoint daemon. Discovers local MCP configs and wraps stdio processes. eBPF kernel telemetry on Linux is on the roadmap.

Cortex

Pluggable classifier service. Regex baseline by default; transformer and LLM backends available behind a config toggle.

Console

SaaS dashboard. Real-time event stream, agent inventory, policy editor.
