Preventive enforcement layer for agentic applications, from discovery through action-level policy

Aira Security's design assumption is that agent behavior is not fully predictable, so controls that depend on knowing in advance what an agent will do are the wrong shape. The platform works in three stages. It first identifies the agentic applications actually running across the environment, including those built inside business teams rather than through a platform group. It then records the actions each agent takes, at the level of the individual tool call and resource touched, which produces the behavioral baseline that policy is written against. Enforcement is preventive: a policy decision is made on the action before it executes, so an agent that attempts something outside its scope is stopped rather than logged.

The founding team comes from the infrastructure side of the problem. Chief technology officer Naveen Mahavishnu led security for AWS Bedrock AgentCore and holds five patents in agent security, and chief executive Mohan Kumar previously held security roles at Box and Morgan Stanley, which places both founders on the side of the industry that had to make agent runtimes safe for other people's production workloads before the category had a name. Aira was selected for the 2026 CrowdStrike, AWS, and NVIDIA Cybersecurity Startup Accelerator. The company has not disclosed funding terms, and the product is aimed at enterprises running agents in production rather than in evaluation.
