Nvidia Unveils AI Agent Safety Platform With Hardware-Based Watchdog
Nvidia launched an agent safety platform pairing OpenShell sandboxing with a BlueField-4 hardware watchdog.
Nvidia announced the Open Agent Safety Platform to keep AI agents inside operator-set limits from testing through deployment. OpenShell 0.1.0 sandboxes agents with kernel-level filesystem and process controls and a supervisor that inspects all outbound traffic, can block writes, and substitutes real API keys only for authorized endpoints. Optional Sentry software on BlueField-4 DPUs can quarantine an agent in milliseconds even if the host is compromised. Nvidia says more than 100 organizations are involved, including Anthropic, Salesforce, SAP, CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, and Cisco.
