戴尔将AI agent护栏视为实现更大自主的途径。
随着企业让AI agents工作,他们面临着一个挑战:他们如何在保持AI agent护栏的同时赋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。 根据Dell Technologies公司总裁兼首席安全官John Scimone(图象)的说法,这些决定超越了个别行动,还包括支持企业的数据保护和网络复原力能力。
“好消息是,这是纠正错误的最佳时机。” “今天,各组织正在设计agents,它将在今后数年中发挥作用。 在这个设计阶段,总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。”
在CUBE, SiliconANGLE Media的直播工作室独家播出时,他们讨论了网络复原力如何取代传统的灾后恢复,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。 (* 下文披露。 )
在不减速的情况下设置 AI agent 护栏
企业的复原力曾经意味着围绕野火、飓风和断电建设的灾后恢复。 根据Scimone的说法,今天,一个广泛的网络攻击跨越整个数字生态系统是更有可能发生的情况。 Agents增加了一个新的依赖性,因为当软件完成时,交给软件的工作会停止。
如果这些agents无法使用,Scimone 称 (英语). “如果agents决定的数据没有,怎么办?你们的复原力态势的核心部分必须与notion争辩,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。 由CUBE Research的Krista Case领导的对25名企业技术和安全领导者的调查发现,19名在生产中拥有agents的自主性。 没有人允许这些agents未经人类批准就进行高风险行动。
称表示,“这意味着在你们不能失败的地方仔细思考,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也扩展了其网络复原力工具,并加入了OpenAI Group PBC的网络防御集体行动呼吁。
攻击者使用AI已有多年,他期望这很快会改变。
称表示:「我们还没有达到我认为即将到来的曲线
Vellante指出了调查得出的一个令人鼓舞的结论:给予agents边界自治的组织比那些完全依靠人类同意的组织表现出更强的恢复准备状态。 Scimone认为,AI agent的护栏设计在前面让公司承担更多风险
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知道它们并没有越轨。 “同时,他们也并非在采集不足。”

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.
Attackers have used AI for years but haven’t yet deployed it at full scale, according to Scimone. He expects that to change soon.
“We haven’t hit that curve that I do believe is coming, and in the coming quarters, not in the coming years,” he said.
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.”
