What you find
when you read the kernel.

Six patterns we see again and again across security and platform teams running AI in production — and what AIOStack actually does about them.

UC·01FINTECH · 800 ENG

Shadow AI in production

CISO · public fintech

problem

Six product teams shipped LLM features in a quarter — three never went through security review. Nobody had a list of every model, key, and downstream endpoint actually in use.

approach

AIOStack discovered 41 distinct LLM-calling workloads from kernel traffic alone — including a customer-support summarizer routing transcripts to a personal OpenAI key, and an Anthropic call buried inside a vendor SDK.

outcome
  • 41 AI workloads inventoried in 36 hours
  • 3 unsanctioned providers retired the same week
  • 0 code changes, 0 developer interrupts

PHI leaving the environment

Head of Platform Security

problem

A clinical-notes agent embedded patient records against a vector store. Embeddings were going to a third-party provider with no BAA in place. No one knew until a compliance audit.

approach

AIOStack parses embedding-API protocols at the kernel, classifies request bodies as PHI in real-time, and flags any sensitive payload heading to an unapproved destination.

outcome
  • PHI-touching agents reduced 31 → 4
  • Vendor BAA tracking automated from runtime evidence
  • Audit closed with runtime trace, not just config

Agent permissions exploded

Cloud Security Architect

problem

A support agent had been given a broad IAM role months ago "just to ship". By the time anyone looked, that role had 48 permissions, and the agent was using 6.

approach

AIOStack maps every permission granted against every permission actually exercised at runtime. Over-provisioned roles surface automatically with proposed least-privilege scopes.

outcome
  • 42 unused permissions removed across 8 NHIs
  • 6 of 8 service accounts now meet least-privilege
  • Drift detection runs continuously, not yearly

MCP & tool-use opacity

Engineering Manager · agent platform

problem

Multi-step agents chained MCP tools, vector lookups, and external APIs in ways nobody could reproduce post-incident. Logs from each tool existed; the workflow did not.

approach

AIOStack reconstructs full agent workflows at the kernel layer — every MCP invocation, tool call, model hop, and downstream egress is stitched into a single evidence chain.

outcome
  • Mean incident time-to-cause: 3d → 22m
  • Replay of every multi-step agent workflow
  • MCP server inventory generated automatically

SOC 2 evidence, on demand

GRC Lead

problem

Auditors wanted proof that AI access to customer financial records was authorized and appropriate. Existing controls produced policy docs, not runtime evidence.

approach

AIOStack records every sensitive data access by every agent, with full identity chain, purpose, and timing. Evidence packages export directly for audit. (DAM-grade detail available with Aurva Enterprise.)

outcome
  • SOC 2 evidence pack auto-generated weekly
  • 4 quarters of access history queryable in seconds
  • No agent code modified to produce trail
UC·06D2C · GLOBAL

Novel egress destinations

Detection & Response Lead

problem

A workload started sending data to an endpoint nobody recognized at 3am. By the time the SIEM flagged volume, 90 minutes of traffic had already left.

approach

AIOStack baselines every workload's expected destinations and flags first-time egress to a novel endpoint in real-time — with the originating agent, role, and data class attached.

outcome
  • Novel-destination alerts within 30s of first call
  • Originating identity chain attached to every finding
  • 6 unsanctioned egress paths shut down in month 1
