NEW! Data443 Acquires Vaikora – Real-Time AI Runtime Control & Enforcement for AI Agent
This article explains how AI agent activity can be surfaced in AWS Security Hub using Vaikora. Vaikora’s capabilities include providing deep visibility into AI agent operations and generating comprehensive audit logs for real-time monitoring, compliance tracking, and threat analysis.
Most CrowdStrike deployments have the same blind spot. Endpoints are covered, IAM behavior is logged, network traffic is monitored. But the AI agents running on that infrastructure, making thousands of decisions per day, generate zero signals in Falcon unless something hits the endpoint in a way that looks like traditional malware.
Today’s security teams face the challenge of identifying not just known threats, but also emerging and unknown threats that can bypass conventional defenses. This is where artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are transforming the field.
Agents are powerful. They write to production databases. They call APIs. They move files. They trigger workflows. Unlike traditional applications, which are deterministic systems where every code path gets reviewed before deployment and behavior is predictable, agents behave in non-deterministic and evolving ways at runtime. They make decisions. They execute. We react.
Most security teams haven’t inventoried their AI agents, let alone assessed the risks those agents introduce in enterprise environments. That’s a problem because AI agents in production environments have something attackers want: credentials, access, and the ability to take action autonomously.

If you have AI agents in production, there’s a good chance you’ve invested in monitoring them — log forwarding to your SIEM, dashboards showing agent activity, maybe some custom detection rules for anomalous behavior.
AI agents are the fastest-growing and least-governed attack surface in enterprise environments today. AI runtime security protects AI models and applications during their active operation, continuously monitoring for threats in real-time.
AI agents have crossed a threshold. They no longer just generate text — they write to databases, call payment APIs, send communications, and modify records autonomously. Traditional security tools (DLP, SIEM, WAF, IAM) were built for human-generated actions and static data flows. They cannot evaluate what an AI agent decides to do at runtime.
I Is No Longer Just Generating Content. It’s Taking Action. Artificial intelligence has come a long way – it’s no longer just an assistant, but a real-life doer. What used to be tools for summarizing content and answering questions have evolved into systems that can get real work done in enterprise environments.
