Frontier Models. Production Guardrails.
Autonomy With Control
Frontier AI models are becoming more capable, autonomous, and persistent. But giving agents the freedom to reason and act also creates a fundamental challenge: how do you keep them from going somewhere or doing something they shouldn’t?
At XBOW, this isn’t a hypothetical. Operating autonomous offensive security agents in production forced us to confront this problem early and build a defense-in-depth safety architecture around it.
August 20 at 11am PT / 2pm ET - Join XBOW's Head of AI Albert Ziegler on for this discussion on what we’ve learned.
What you’ll learn:
The guardrails: How XBOW uses layered controls to constrain agent behavior without eliminating autonomy.
The near misses: Real examples of agents approaching a boundary—and the controls that stopped them.
The models: What production data reveals about how frontier models behave differently when they encounter safety blocks.
The bigger lesson: What teams building and deploying autonomous agents should consider as model capabilities accelerate.
