Keep PII from walking out through your agents.
An agent with a send tool and access to customer data is one bad prompt from an exfiltration you'd only notice after it's gone. HiveKey scopes agents away from sensitive data, blocks egress in the path, and keeps PII out of the record — with detector-driven gating on top.

Four layers on the same spine.
PII protection isn't a separate product — it's what Scope, Guard, and Log already do on every call, plus a detector feeding the decision. Three are deterministic and in-path today; the fourth rides your classifier.
PII-bearing tools stay invisible
Grant an agent only the tools its job needs. The systems that hold PII — records, exports, the data warehouse — never appear in its manifest unless you grant them. It can't read what it can't see.
Block the data from leaving
Every outbound action is checked in the path: the destination must be on your allow-list, and known secret and credential patterns are denied before they leave. No send to an unapproved domain, no key in a payload.
Keep PII out of the trail
The audit log records the action, the verdict, and the responsible identity — not the contents of your payloads. PII stays out of the record by default, so the trail that proves what happened isn't itself a liability.
Enforce on a PII detector's verdict
Bring your own classifier — Presidio, Cloud DLP, or a vendor DLP. HiveKey calls it on outbound actions and turns a PII finding into a block or an approval, in the path. We enforce on the verdict; we don't claim to out-detect a dedicated DLP.
Deterministic now. Detector-driven next.
We're a control plane, not a DLP vendor. The fast, deterministic controls are in the path today; semantic detection on unstructured text rides a classifier you bring — we enforce on its verdict.
- Scope agents away from PII-bearing tools and exports
- Destination allow-lists on every outbound action
- Deny known secret, key & credential patterns in the path
- Structured-PII patterns (card via Luhn, SSN, email, phone)
- Log minimization — payload contents kept out of the trail
- Hold risky sends for human approval before anything leaves
- Semantic PII classification on unstructured text (via your detector)
- Field-level redaction & masking in transit
- Quarantine on a detector's high-confidence PII finding
The value isn't out-detecting a DLP — it's being the one place that turns any detector's PII finding into an enforced block and a provable record, before the data leaves.

Same controls, tuned to the data your agents touch.

HiveKey produces the access, enforcement, and audit evidence these frameworks expect for AI agents. Not legal advice — a head start on the controls.

Bring an agent that touches customer data — we'll scope it, block an exfiltration attempt in the path, and walk the redacted audit trail. 30 minutes, no slides.
