Dell将AI agent护卫视为实现更大自主的途径。
当企业让 AI agents 工作时,他们面临着一个挑战:他们如何在保持AI agent护栏的同时给予这些系统更大的自主权?
随着企业决定将哪些任务委托给AI agents,安全和复原力正成为中心考虑因素。 据Dell Technology Inc公司总裁兼首席安全干事John Scimone(图片)说,这些决定超越了个人行动,而包括支持企业的数据保护和网络复原力能力。
Scimone 称。 “今天,各组织正在设计agents,它将在今后数年中发挥作用。 此时此刻,设计始终是使安全工作做得好,使复原力做得好的最佳时机。 为代理设计安全复原力是一个巨大的机会。”
Scimone在CUBE, SiliconANGLE Media直播室独家播出时,他们讨论了网络复原力如何取代了传统的灾后恢复,安全领导人如何向董事会通报情况,以及自主企业应给AI agents多少。 (* 以下披露。 )
设置 AI agent 护栏而不减速业务
企业的复原力一度意味着围绕野火、飓风和断电建设的灾后恢复。 根据Scimone的说法,今天,整个数字生态系统的广泛网络攻击是更有可能发生的情况。 Agents增加了一个新的依赖性,因为交给软件的工作在软件完成时会停止。
如果这些agents不可用,(原始内容存档于2018-10-12). Scimone 称。 “如果agents决定的数据无法获得,怎么办?你们的复原力态势的核心部分必须与notion抗争,如果我们的agents下降,我们的工作就不会发生。”
公司仍然对让agents单独行动持谨慎态度。 对CUBE Research's Krista Case牵头的25个企业技术和安全负责人的调查发现,19个在生产中拥有自主agents. 没有任何国家允许这些agents在没有人类许可的情况下进行高风险行动。
称表示,也让企业运转。 现在,我看到前面的空间过于谨慎。
Scimone解释说,Dell在内部适用这一纪律,给予每个agent严格的身份和出入控制,大量记录和追踪决定和行动。 这一基础工作很重要,因为调查的25个答复者中只有4个测试了AI agent事件情景。 Dell也扩充了网络抗御能力工具,并加入了OpenAI Group PBC的网络防御集体行动呼吁。
“在威胁方面,现实是威胁行为者肯定正在使用AI,多年来,爆炸尚未发生。” “我们还没有达到我认为即将到来的曲线,在未来的几年里,也不会达到这样的曲线。 ”
Vellante指出了调查得出的一个令人鼓舞的结论:给予agents有限自主权的组织比那些完全依靠人类批准的组织表现出更强的恢复准备。 在Scimone看来,AI agent的护卫装置设计在前面,让公司承担更多的风险
Scimone 称。 “具有讽刺意味的是,那些设计这些治理系统的组织将是最迅速的,并且能够承担最大的风险,因为它们能够用正确的见解和正确的数据来确信它们并没有越轨。” “与此同时,它们并没有被忽略。”

Dell sees AI agent guardrails as a path to greater autonomy
As enterprises put AI agents to work, they face a challenge: How can they give those systems more autonomy while keeping AI agent guardrails in place?
Security and resilience are becoming central considerations as enterprises decide which tasks to delegate to AI agents. Those decisions extend beyond individual actions to the data protection and cyber resilience capabilities that support the business, according to John Scimone (pictured), president and chief security officer of Dell Technologies Inc.
“The good news is, this is the best time to get it right,” Scimone said. “Organizations are today designing agents that are going to be working for years ahead. At that point of design is always the best time to get security done well, to get resilience done well. Security resilience by design for agentic is a huge opportunity.”
Scimone spoke with theCUBE’s Dave Vellante for the AI Cybersecurity and Resilience Summit, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio. They discussed how cyber resilience has replaced traditional disaster recovery, how security leaders brief boards and how much autonomy enterprises should give AI agents. (* Disclosure below.)
Setting AI agent guardrails without slowing the business
Business resilience once meant disaster recovery built around wildfires, hurricanes and grid outages. Today, a widespread cyberattack across an entire digital ecosystem is the more likely scenario, according to Scimone. Agents add a new dependency because work handed to software stops when the software does.
“What happens if these agents aren’t available?” Scimone said. “What happens if the data that the agents are deciding on is not available? A core part of your resilience posture has to contend with the notion that if our agents go down, our work is not happening.”
Companies are still cautious about letting agents act alone. A survey of 25 enterprise technology and security leaders led by theCUBE Research’s Krista Case found that 19 had autonomous agents in production. None allowed those agents to perform high-risk actions without human approval.
“It doesn’t mean doing it willy-nilly and just throwing caution to the wind,” he said. “It means being very thoughtful around where can’t you fail, putting deterministic guardrails in place … and letting the business run. Right now, I’m seeing too much caution in the space on that front.”
Dell applies that discipline internally, giving every agent tight identity and access control, extensive logging and traceability of decisions and actions, Scimone explained. That groundwork matters because only four of the survey’s 25 respondents had tested an AI agent incident scenario. Dell has also expanded its cyber resilience tools and joined OpenAI Group PBC’s call for collective action on cyber defense.
“On the threat front, the reality is while threat actors are certainly using AI and have been for a number of years, the explosion has not happened yet,” he said. “We haven’t hit that curve that I do believe is coming, and in the coming quarters, not in the coming years.”
Vellante pointed to one encouraging finding from the survey: Organizations granting agents bounded autonomy showed stronger recovery readiness than those relying solely on human approval. In Scimone’s view, AI agent guardrails designed up front let companies take more risk, not less.
“Organizations that design those governance systems upfront are going to be the ones, ironically, that can move the quickest and can take the most risk because they can do it confidently with the right insights and the right data to know that they’re not overstepping,” Scimone said. “At the same time, they’re not under-leaning.”
