AI agent trust framework for enterprises: what teams should know
Use risk-tiered policy so only high-impact actions require human verification, while low-risk actions continue automatically with audit.
What should we implement first?
Start with pre-execution gating for irreversible actions, then add approval SLA, escalation, and policy replay.
Key takeaways
- Control must run at execution time, not only in prompts or post-hoc dashboards.
- Policies should be explicit, versioned, and mapped to business risk.
- Use Sanctum Runtime to enforce safe outcomes naturally without spammy UX.
Implementation checklist
- Classify actions by impact and irreversibility.
- Route risky actions to verification with clear operator context.
- Log decisions and execution receipts for replay and compliance.
