Use cases
Let agents act, and keep the risky actions in check
The patterns below come from the policies and checks Vulnify ships today. Each one starts in monitor mode, so you see what would be blocked before you enforce anything.
By agent type
Common agents and how to govern them
Customer support agents
Look up orders, change accounts, issue refunds.
- Risk: changes to customer records or bulk lookups
- Control: block deletes of customer records; review reads above a record threshold
Sales and CRM agents
Enrich leads, draft emails, sync pipelines.
- Risk: customer lists sent to an external email or API
- Control: block external export of customer personal data; review external email
Data and analytics agents
Query warehouses and build reports.
- Risk: bulk reads and personal data in the content they pass along
- Control: review reads of 10,000+ records; DLP flags CPF, CNPJ, cards, emails and keys without storing them
Coding and DevOps agents
Run tools through MCP servers: tickets, repositories, cloud consoles.
- Risk: destructive tool calls and long-lived credentials in the agent
- Control: guard MCP handlers; route calls through the gateway so the credential vault injects secrets only on ALLOW
Finance operations agents
Reconcile, pay vendors, move money.
- Risk: any access to financial data, especially outside business hours
- Control: review financial data access; a different person approves, with MFA for high risk
Internal assistants
Answer employee questions over HR, IT and knowledge bases.
- Risk: employee records reaching people or systems that should not see them
- Control: grant actions per data kind; review employee data exports
By industry
Where the stakes are highest
Financial services and payments
Agents near money and regulated data
Put a human in the loop for payments and financial data, keep a tamper-evident trail of every approval, and bring LGPD evidence to audits.
SaaS and technology
Many agents, many integrations
Give each agent its own scoped API key (environment, agent, IP allowlist, expiry), keep third-party credentials in the vault, and send decisions to your SIEM.
Retail and e-commerce
Customer data at scale
Stop bulk exports of customer lists, review refunds or account changes above your thresholds, and watch for agents drifting from their baseline.
Healthcare and life sciences
Sensitive records, minimal exposure
Vulnify stores action metadata, not record contents, and scans optional content in memory only. It is not a HIPAA certification; it gives you the controls and the trail.
