Secure the human-agent system—not just the agent
Other vendors treat the agent as the unit of risk. Mimecast starts with a different question: who deployed it, and what do we already know about them? The risk an agent introduces is inseparable from the human directing it.
Consider two employees who deploy the same AI agent with identical permissions. The agent pulls financial records it has never touched before.
- Employee A has five years of clean history.
- Employee B has been on a watchlist for three months.
Same agent, same action — the human behind it changes everything.
