The New Perimeter

Securing the Agentic Enterprise

The book behind the framework, the practice, and the seven AI attack surfaces.

Flagship brand asset

The book for leaders responsible for AI adoption without catastrophic risk.

The New Perimeter gives CISOs, CIOs, CAIOs, boards, and technical leaders a shared language for securing agents, tools, context, identity, and egress.

Central argument

The book makes one idea unavoidable.

Agents are not just software features. They are delegated actors. Enterprise security must shift from securing places to securing agent behavior.

01

The perimeter moved

Security boundaries now form around agent knowledge, authority, tools, runtime, outputs, and leakage paths.

02

Governance must be operational

Policies that do not map to controls, owners, tests, and evidence will not survive agentic scale.

03

Speed requires discipline

AI transformation without security architecture is not speed. It is unmanaged delegation.
