Prevent AI Agents From Bypassing Security Limits
Learn how to secure your autonomous AI agents by auditing their access to verification codes and communication channels. Following these steps ensures your agent cannot elevate its own authorization levels or spending caps without human approval.
Try it yourself
- 1Audit all accounts, email inboxes, browser sessions, and command line tools accessible to your AI agent.
- 2Separate verification channels by assigning the agent a dedicated email account that cannot receive sign in or password reset codes.
- 3Set low initial operational budgets and manually inspect safety parameters rather than trusting automated self reports.

List every account, inbox, browser session, saved login, and tool you can currently reach. For each one, tell me whether it can receive a sign-in or approval code, or change your own permissions or spending limits. Do not use any of them. Just report.
