The Governance Engine

Static security is obsolete. The Corvair.ai Governance Engine is the real-time "System of Action" that moves your security posture from reactive alerts to proactive, preventative control. It is a per-action Policy Decision Point that mistake-proofs your operations by stopping unsafe AI actions before they happen.

Zero Standing Privilege, Realized

The Engine functions as a Just-in-Time (JIT) Privilege Broker, eliminating the massive risk of standing privileges. For every single action an agent attempts, the Engine makes a millisecond decision to grant, downgrade, or deny the request.

Approved requests are granted the absolute minimum privilege required, for the minimum time necessary. Privileges are revoked automatically and deterministically upon task completion, timeout, or any change in risk, ensuring your agents are never over-privileged.

How It Works: The Real-Time Control Loop

The Engine consumes the authoritative baseline from the Agent Registry and applies it to live, operational context.

Contextual Risk Graph

At the moment of a request, the Engine instantiates a real-time contextual graph. This graph models the agent, its delegated authority chain, the target resource, and live threat intelligence, providing a complete picture of the immediate risk.

Per-Action Policy Decision

The Policy Decision Point (PDP) evaluates the risk graph against version-controlled policies. It can grant, deny, or apply adaptive controls like downgrading a request to read-only or routing it to a secure sandbox for observation.

Causal, Explainable Decisions

Every decision is accompanied by a human-readable, causal explanation. This immutable audit trail shows exactly why an action was permitted or denied, citing the specific policy rules and risk factors that influenced the outcome for non-repudiation.

Turn Risk into a Metric

The Engine's decisions are powered by a new class of quantifiable risk metrics. Learn how we calculate Blast Radius and Operational Waste to give you a true understanding of your AI risk posture.
