NeuralTrust, the leading platform for securing AI agents and LLM applications, has been named a Representative Vendor in Gartner's Market Guide for Guardian Agents, under the category of Agent Risk and Security Specialists. This acknowledgment underscores the critical need for independent, runtime oversight as enterprises increasingly deploy autonomous AI agents that orchestrate workflows, access sensitive data, and execute real-world actions across business operations.

As AI agents evolve into autonomous systems capable of independent decision-making and multi-tool orchestration, traditional security approaches fall short. Governance now demands continuous inspection and enforcement to address expanded risk surfaces that extend beyond model outputs to include behavioral anomalies, unauthorized actions, and compliance violations in production environments.
The Gartner Market Guide emphasizes several market-defining trends. Autonomous agents introduce novel risks through their ability to act across disparate systems, propagate identities, and trigger consequential outcomes. In response, enterprises are prioritizing independent oversight layers that operate outside specific AI vendors or clouds, ensuring consistent supervision regardless of underlying infrastructure.
Runtime inspection has become essential, with capabilities such as anomaly detection, real-time policy enforcement, and comprehensive monitoring forming the foundation for secure deployment. Additionally, governance and security functions are converging into unified platforms tailored to agent ecosystems, combining visibility, traceability, evaluation, and enforcement in a single control plane.
NeuralTrust's platform directly addresses these requirements by delivering runtime protection, automated red teaming to uncover vulnerabilities, continuous evaluation of agent behavior, and observability across interactions. This enables dynamic policy enforcement, anomaly detection, and measurable governance that organizations can apply from the outset of AI initiatives.
"AI agents introduce a new operational risk surface that requires infrastructure-level supervision," said Joan Vendrell, Co-Founder and CEO of NeuralTrust. "Being recognized as leaders by Gartner reinforces our conviction that enterprises need independent, cross-platform enforcement layers to safely scale agent adoption. Our mission is to help organizations deploy AI systems with visibility, control, and measurable security from day one."
By embedding trust mechanisms directly into runtime infrastructure, NeuralTrust helps enterprises achieve secure, compliant, and scalable AI operations while maintaining confidence in autonomous systems.
