      <description>WitnessAI adds MCP server/tool discovery, approved-tool enforcement, and bidirectional content inspection for enterprise AI agent governance.⁠︀︄︇︀︅︉︀︅︀︀︃︀︀︅︅︀︅︊︀︄︆︀︃︄⁠
• Adds an organization-wide approved-tool list for MCP servers and tools, enforced at the network level before agent calls execute across IDE, chat, and agent surfaces via Agentic Control.⁠︀︄︇︀︅︉︀︅︀︀︃︀︀︅︅︀︅︊︀︄︆︀︃︄⁠
• Adds MCP server and tool visibility through the Observe module, identifying agentic sessions by inspecting tool advertisements in traffic payloads across Claude Desktop, VS Code with AI extensions, and local agents built on LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, and custom code.
• Adds bidirectional content inspection via the Protect module&apos;s runtime APIs, evaluating agent inputs before processing and responses before delivery, with malicious prompt detection validated in production across more than 100 LLMs.
• Adds unified audit trails that correlate agent actions and blocked tool calls to a triggering human identity, covering both agent and employee activity routed through the platform.
• Supports intent-based machine learning classification of conversational context to drive Control module enforcement decisions: allow, warn, block, or route to an approved internal model.

      <title>WitnessAI AI data classification: how it works (2026-09-13)</title>

      <description>WitnessAI adds intent-based AI data classification with agentic controls, MCP allow-lists, and data tokenization across the full prompt lifecycle.⁠︀︄︇︀︅︉︀︅︀︀︃︀︀︅︅︀︅︊︀︄︆︀︃︄⁠
• Adds `Observe` module for network-level discovery of AI tools and MCP connections — including native apps like Windows Copilot and Microsoft 365 — cataloging thousands of AI applications without endpoint clients or browser extensions, and attributing captured agent actions to a human identity.⁠︀︄︇︀︅︉︀︅︀︀︃︀︀︅︅︀︅︊︀︄︆︀︃︄⁠
• Adds `Agentic Control` to enforce approved-tool and MCP allow-lists, block unauthorized tool calls before execution, perform pre-execution checks on approved tool calls, apply runtime controls to agent activity, and maintain a full audit trail of governed agent and tool-call activity across more than 100 LLM types.
• Adds `Protect` runtime guardrails to inspect prompts and filter harmful or off-policy responses in AI interactions routed through the platform, covering both inputs and generated outputs for PII and sensitive data per NIST Generative AI Profile guidance.
• Adds `Control` capabilities to enforce four-tier intelligent policies — allow, warn, block, and route — on AI traffic routed through the platform, enabling proportionate enforcement over prompt, upload, response, and tool-call interactions.
• Adds data tokenization that replaces classified sensitive values (such as SSNs) before prompts leave the enterprise and policy-enforced detokenization that restores original values for authorized users in model responses.
• Adds intent-based machine learning classification that evaluates conversational context and purpose to detect sensitive data, suspicious behavior, and policy violations that keyword and regex matching cannot represent, with confidence scores adjusted by contextual signals.
• Adds routing action within `Control` to redirect sensitive queries (such as non-public drug research or financial data) from external models to approved internal models based on classified intent.
• Produces auditable records of what employees and agents sent to which model and what came back, providing evidence for AI risk reviews under frameworks such as DORA and the EU AI Act.
