Agentic Endpoint Security

Many agents run on laptops rather than in the cloud. They act with the user's local access and credentials, often outside the view of cloud security tools and traditional endpoint protection.

Agentic endpoint security covers:

• Discovery: Finding agents, plugins, skills, and MCP servers on devices.
• Configuration risk: Identifying exposed secrets and unsafe settings.
• Policy enforcement: Controlling what agents may install, execute, and access.
• Activity monitoring: Recording agent actions for detection and audit.
• Response: Blocking or stopping agents that misbehave.

Endpoint incidents in 2026, from infostealers targeting agent tokens to coding agents exposing internal data, showed that local agents need dedicated controls.

Traditional EDR tools see processes, not agent intent. Agentic endpoint security adds context about which agent did what and why.
