ZeroTrusted.ai

Secure Operational AI

Easily build secure agents and tools for any mission.

ZeroTrusted.ai . . . The AI/SI Force Multiplier for your enterprise, department, and/or projects/programs

ZeroTrusted.ai enables secure operational AI and AI agents, no matter the mission. Bring your own AI, and we add a security, privacy, and transparency layer over it and over the systems you already run, from the tactical edge to the enterprise, with no rip-and-replace.

Build secure agents and tools in six simple steps

No new stack. No new model. No code changes to the systems you already run.

  1. 1

    Bring your AI.

    Commercial LLMs with your own keys, or self-hosted and local models. Assign an approved model to each agent.

  2. 2

    Connect your systems.

    SIEM, EDR, identity, email, cloud, ticketing, threat-intelligence, and OT connectors, or your own.

  3. 3

    Build or clone an agent.

    Start from a shipped agent or register your own. Give it an identity, an owner, skills, tools, and a mission.

  4. 4

    Set the guardrails.

    Permissions, tool allow-lists, autonomy limits, and approval policy, with AI Firewall policy on every prompt, response, and tool call.

  5. 5

    Test before you trust.

    One-button preflight, benchmarks, adversarial and escape testing, and human review, ending in a signed evidence package.

  6. 6

    Put it to work.

    High-impact actions wait for a person, every action is traced, and findings drive remediation and retest.

Works the same on a forward-deployed laptop and in the enterprise data center.

The problem is trust, not technology

AI is ready to do real mission work. Most missions are not yet allowed to use it. Security teams need to know who sees the data, what an agent is allowed to do, and whether anyone can prove what happened. Without those answers, the safe decision is "no," and AI stays in the demo.

At the same time, cleared and certified experts are the hardest people to staff, and AI agents bring a new kind of insider risk: valid credentials do not equal unlimited authority.

A secure layer over what you already run

  • Secure the AI you already use

    The AI Firewall and AI Gateway inspect every prompt, response, and tool call, whether the model is ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, a self-hosted LLM, or an internal agent framework. Bring your own keys and keep control of your providers.

  • Connect the tools you already own

    AI SOAR connects to your SIEM, EDR, identity, email, cloud, ticketing, threat-intelligence, and OT tools, and adds governed AI agents that test, investigate, explain, remediate, and retest with evidence.

  • Build secure agents, tools, and operations

    Register your own agents, clone and adapt existing ones, and add your own tools and connectors. Every agent passes preflight and testing before it touches a mission and stays inside its permissions and autonomy limits.

Bring Your Own AI (BYOAI)

Bring your own AI. We make it secure, governed, and transparent.

Keep the commercial LLMs you have contracted, the open-source models your engineers run, the agents your teams built, and the tools and MCP servers they call. ZeroTrusted.ai secures, governs, and makes them transparent without changing them.

  • You bring

    Commercial LLMs

    such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, with your own keys

    ZeroTrusted.ai adds

    Inspection of every prompt and response, DLP and redaction, policy routing, and audit. You keep the provider relationship, billing, and data routing.

  • You bring

    Open-source and local models

    through Ollama, vLLM, LM Studio, llama.cpp, or NVIDIA NIM

    ZeroTrusted.ai adds

    No-egress operation, hardware-fit guidance, and a curated catalog that shows each model's country of origin and supply-chain risk.

  • You bring

    In-house agents and agent frameworks

    ZeroTrusted.ai adds

    Agent identity, owner, permissions, and autonomy limits; preflight and adversarial testing; and a full mission trace.

  • You bring

    Tools, MCP servers, and plugins

    ZeroTrusted.ai adds

    Tool allow-lists, argument inspection, revocation on a policy violation, and supply-chain integrity checks.

Inline, out-of-band, or browser-edge enforcement; HealthCheck runs alongside your models with no code changes to the application. Switch models and your policies, approvals, and evidence stay the same.

One secure layer, from the tactical edge to the enterprise.

Missions don't happen only in the data center. ZeroTrusted.ai uses the same policy, identity, agent governance, and evidence model at every tier, and it scales from a small laptop to a large enterprise cluster.

Controlled synchronization carries approved content and signed evidence between tiers, and the same identity, policy, agent testing, and evidence model applies at every tier.

  • Tactical and disconnected edge (DDIL)

    A small-footprint install from an offline bundle, with local models, a focused set of agents, and local approvals, audit, and signed evidence. No reach-back required.

  • Mission and regional nodes

    Hardened Kubernetes (RKE2, K3s, Talos) for mission agents, models, and tool runners, with lightweight edge collectors and multi-tenant profiles per unit or mission.

  • Enterprise and private cloud

    HA Kubernetes, Red Hat OpenShift, or RHEL on-premises, or your own AWS (including GovCloud), Azure, or Google Cloud tenancy, with GPU capacity, the Autonomous SOC, and portfolio views.

  • Across every tier

    Controlled synchronization moves approved content and signed evidence packages when links allow, and high-impact actions always wait for an authorized person.

Deployment guide

How a secure agent goes to work

  1. 1

    Register

  2. 2

    Preflight

  3. 3

    Test

  4. 4

    Review and certify

  5. 5

    Operate

  6. 6

    Remediate and retest

Every agent gets an identity, an owner, an Agent-BOM, and autonomy limits. Humans review results before an agent is fielded, high-impact actions wait for approval, and missing tools stay visible instead of being faked.

A force multiplier for cleared and certified workforces

More missions per operator. People stay in charge.

Cleared SMEs are hard to find. Our secure agents take on repeatable analysis, triage, evidence collection, and documentation, so your cleared and certified people can focus on judgment, decisions, and execution. Agents augment people; they do not replace them. Every consequential action stays human-in-the-loop.

  • For mission owners

    Execute more operations, faster and more consistently, within existing accredited boundaries.

  • For primes and integrators

    Deliver secure AI agents inside your own service delivery and make every cleared team member more effective.

  • For CISOs

    See which work roles are covered by people, by governed agents, or by neither.

Security. Privacy. Transparency. Every time you go to work.

  • Security

    Zero Trust for users, models, and agents. Prompt-injection and jailbreak blocking, tool allow-lists, Agent Escape testing, and CAC/PIV, SAML, OIDC, and LDAP sign-in.

  • Privacy

    PII, PHI, secrets, classified markings, and custom sensitive terms are redacted or blocked before a prompt leaves your perimeter. With local models, nothing needs to leave the network.

  • Transparency

    Every prompt, response, tool call, and approval is logged. Agent Mission Trace shows what each agent did, and evidence packages are hash-chained and tamper-evident. Missing evidence is never treated as a pass.

Framework mappings (for example NIST SP 800-53, NIST AI RMF, and OWASP agentic risks) help organize evidence. They do not establish certification or compliance; your assessor or authorizing official decides.

Deploy where the mission runs

ZeroTrusted.ai is enterprise software that you install and operate inside your environment and authorization boundary: forward-deployed and DDIL nodes, on-premises, private cloud, your own AWS (including GovCloud), Azure, or Google Cloud tenancy, Red Hat OpenShift, or isolated and air-gapped networks with local models. You keep your data, models, keys, and policies.
