# AI Agent Security

## Overview

Akto lets you seamlessly import **AI agents** such as **AWS Bedrock, Azure AI Foundry, Databricks, Google Vertex AI, IBM Watsonx**, or even your **custom agent** into **AI Agent Security**. With just the agent endpoint URL and optional configuration, you can start monitoring and scanning agent activity instantly.

**Bring Your Own AI Agent**

Akto Argus also supports **Bring Your Own Agent**, enabling organizations to secure **any custom, in-house, or self-hosted AI agent**, even if it is not built on a predefined platform.

**With Bring Your Own Agent, you can:**

* Secure proprietary and homegrown AI agents
* Integrate agents built using custom frameworks or internal tooling
* Monitor agent behavior, inputs, outputs, and tool usage
* Enforce security policies via Akto Argus APIs or SDKs
  {% endhint %}

## What You Need

* **AI Endpoint URL** (e.g., `https://api.example.com/ai-agent`)
* **(Optional) Custom Request Body** – for agents requiring specific input JSON
* **(Optional) Test Role for Authentication** – for agents with role-based access

<figure><img src="https://2916937215-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FRc4KTKGprZI2sPWKoaLe%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-2d67298aa334f86b23e720ea82b13f8fa50abba8%2Fimage.png?alt=media" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

## Steps to Import

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Open Akto Argus Dashboard** → Go to Connectors
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Select your AI Agent provider** (Azure AI Foundry, Databricks, Vertex AI, Watsonx, or *Bring Your Own Agent*)
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click **Connect.**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Fill in agent details**:

* **AI Endpoint URL**: e.g., `https://api.example.com/ai-agent`
* *(Optional)* Check **Use custom request body** and enter JSON payload:

  ```json
  { "key": "value" }
  ```
* *(Optional)* Enable **Use test role for authentication** and select a role (e.g., `ATTACKER_TOKEN_ALL`)
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click **Import.**
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Akto will now automatically:

* Connect to the AI agent endpoint
* Send sample test requests to validate the configuration
* Register the agent into **AI Agent Security Inventory** for monitoring and scanning

{% hint style="success" %}
**Akto Access Scope**

* Auth/test roles (if any) are used **only during import** and are **not stored**
* Akto uses **read-only access** to interact with your AI agent
  {% endhint %}
