Google Vertex AI Security Best Practices to Safeguard AI Agents

Agents built in Google Vertex AI can pull sensitive data, invoke external APIs, and chain actions in ways that are difficult to monitor with native tools alone. Zenity gives security teams a single pane of glass to discover, govern, and protect these agents even as projects move quickly.

See what’s really happening

Follow each agent’s execution path (prompts, memory access, data access, tool calls, and outputs) to flag anomalies and policy violations early.

Enforce design-time guardrails

Apply least-privilege and trusted-endpoint rules to agents, tools, and data sources so unsafe configurations never reach production.

Stop harm in motion

Detect intent (not just strings) and block risky steps, like covert exfiltration or tool abuse, inline, without taking safe work offline.

How Zenity Secures Google Vertex AI Across Multiple Risk Types

End-to-End Observability for Vertex AI agents

Automatically surface all agents teams are building on Vertex AI, along with their tools, datasets, and API connections. Behavioral baselining lets you spot unusual access patterns or action chains before they escalate.

Key Features

  • Unified inventory of Vertex-built agents (including unpublished or shadow work) with ownership and purpose
  • Mapping of tools, datasets, and outbound connections per agent
  • Behavioral baselining to highlight drift, anomalies, and runtime-policy violations
