Agents are the new workforce. Without accountability, they become the newest attack surface.

The shift

AI Assistants Are Becoming AI Workers

The first generation of AI helped people work faster.

The next generation performs work on behalf of people.

As organizations deploy AI agents throughout the enterprise, the challenge is no longer access. The challenge is trust.

Meet Haltpoint

A Continuous Runtime Trust Layer

Haltpoint evaluates trust at the exact moment it matters.

Organizations can understand ownership, evaluate trust, and intervene when trust breaks — without slowing the agentic enterprise.

  • Ownership for every enrolled agent
  • Runtime trust decisions, in-flight
  • Intervention pathways: allow, step-up, escalate, pause, block
  • Immutable audit trail of trust events
