Securing AI Agents: How Accuknox’s AgentZ enforces Zero-Trust sandboxing and tool governance

Rahul Jadhav, CTO and Cofounder at AccuKnox, argues that post-attack detection and response models do not scale in an AI-driven world where the time between vulnerability exposure and exploit is shrinking.

He introduces AgentZ, their new Kubernetes-native secure agent harness platform, and explains how it uses sandboxing and a zero-trust proxy to control agent access to secrets, packages, MCP tools, and models without leaking credentials.

If your engineering team is looking to safely deploy autonomous coding or business agents, this episode breaks down how to build a defense-in-depth security layer around them.
