Agent Control Review
Know what your agents can reach, who approved it, and what it costs to run.
Your vendors shipped agent access this year whether or not you scoped it. Warden inventories the agents, tools, and credentials already live, sizes the blast radius, and installs the approval gates and spend guardrails before the next platform update widens what an agent can touch.
Starts with
The agents, copilots, connectors, and MCP tools already running in your stack — including the ones a team switched on without telling anyone.
You leave with
An agent and tool inventory, a blast-radius ranking, approval and revocation gates, and a spend guardrail with a named owner.
Fit
Is this for you?
CIOs, CISOs, and platform leads who have to answer what an agent can reach, who authorized it, and what it costs — now that the system of record, the IDE, and the chat client all have agent surfaces and usage meters.
Probably not if
- Penetration testing or model red-teaming — we scope controls, not offensive security.
- Teams with nothing agentic in production yet — start with Pulse and decide where AI belongs first.
Deliverables
What you receive.
- Agent, tool, and credential inventory across vendor copilots, coding agents, and MCP servers
- Blast-radius ranking: what each agent identity can read, write, send, or spend
- Human-approval and revocation gates for irreversible actions
- Spend guardrails: per-team caps, spike alerts, and chargeback owners
- Disclosure and logging check against the transparency duties that took effect 2 August 2026
- A 30/60/90 hardening plan with named owners
Build options
What we can deliver after.
The diagnostic is the front door. If the roadmap still needs hands on the work, these are the typical next steps — scoped from the problem, not from a menu.
- Least-privilege rollout for agent identities: scoped, time-bound credentials instead of standing keys
- Approval workflow and audit logging for agent actions that send, write, or pay
- Spend controls wired to vendor admin APIs — TokenLoop or your own tooling
- Fractional Head of AI / Transformation retainer for ongoing agent governance
Scoping to delivery
How the engagement runs.
- 01Discovery call: confirm which agents are live, who owns them, and what they can reach
- 02Access: agent and connector configs, permission grants, admin billing views, recent incident notes
- 03Week 1: inventory and permission mapping, owner interviews
- 04Week 2: blast-radius ranking, gate and guardrail design
- 05Week 2–3: hardening plan, exec readout, handoff to build or retainer
Typical follow-on
Post-Diagnostic Execution Retainer for the hardening sprints, or Fractional Head of AI for ongoing governance.
