NVIDIA on Sept. 28 introduced its Open Agent Safety Platform, a framework for securing AI agents as they move from evaluation into live use.
At the center is OpenShell, an open-source runtime that places agents in a controlled environment and applies rules to the systems, data, and actions they can access. NVIDIA says it is broadly available and can run without BlueField-4, including on local setups, on-prem infrastructure, cloud environments, and Kubernetes.
For teams that want stronger separation, NVIDIA is pairing that software layer with Sentry, which uses BlueField-4 DPUs for out-of-band monitoring and enforcement. NVIDIA says Sentry can quarantine agents in milliseconds without depending only on the host the agent is running on.
