The operating system for safe AI agents

Your AI agents can act.

Vaultak decides what they are allowed to do.

Monitor every action. Enforce every boundary. Reverse every mistake. Without changing a single line of agent code. The runtime governance layer the AI security stack was missing.

Industry context

The world's leading security teams<br>are sounding the alarm.

Public statements by executives of Project Glasswing partners via anthropic.com/glasswing, April 2026.

CISCO

&ldquo;The old ways of hardening systems are no longer sufficient. Providers of technology must aggressively adopt new approaches now, and customers need to be ready to deploy.&rdquo;

Anthony Grieco

SVP & Chief Security & Trust Officer, Cisco &middot; via Project Glasswing

AMAZON WEB SERVICES

&ldquo;At AWS, we build defenses before threats emerge, from our custom silicon up through the technology stack. Security isn't a phase for us; it's continuous and embedded in everything we do. We've been testing Claude Mythos Preview in our own security operations, applying it to critical codebases, where it's already helping us strengthen our code.&rdquo;

Amy Herzog

VP & CISO, Amazon Web Services &middot; via Project Glasswing

MICROSOFT

&ldquo;As we enter a phase where cybersecurity is no longer bound by purely human capacity, the opportunity to use AI responsibly to improve security and reduce risk at scale is unprecedented.&rdquo;

Igor Tsyganskiy

Global CISO, EVP Security and Microsoft Research, Microsoft &middot; via Project Glasswing

CROWDSTRIKE

&ldquo;The window between a vulnerability being discovered and being exploited by an adversary has collapsed — what once took months now happens in minutes with AI. That is not a reason to slow down; it's a reason to move together, faster.&rdquo;

Elia Zaitsev

Chief Technology Officer, CrowdStrike &middot; via Project Glasswing

LINUX FOUNDATION

&ldquo;Open source software constitutes the vast majority of code in modern systems, including the very systems AI agents use to write new software. This is how AI-augmented security can become a trusted sidekick for every maintainer, not just those who can afford expensive security teams.&rdquo;

Jim Zemlin

CEO, Linux Foundation &middot; via Project Glasswing

JPMORGANCHASE

&ldquo;Promoting the cybersecurity and resiliency of the financial system is central to JPMorganChase's mission. Project Glasswing provides a unique, early stage opportunity to evaluate next-generation AI tools for defensive cybersecurity across critical infrastructure.&rdquo;

Pat Opet

Chief Information Security Officer, JPMorganChase &middot; via Project Glasswing

GOOGLE

&ldquo;It's always been critical that the industry work together on emerging security issues. We have long believed that AI poses new challenges and opens new opportunities in cyber defense.&rdquo;

Heather Adkins

VP of Security Engineering, Google &middot; via Project Glasswing

PALO ALTO NETWORKS

&ldquo;Everyone needs to prepare for AI-assisted attackers. There will be more attacks, faster attacks, and more sophisticated attacks. Now is the time to modernize cybersecurity stacks everywhere.&rdquo;

Lee Klarich

Chief Product & Technology Officer, Palo Alto Networks &middot; via Project Glasswing

1 / 8

The AI security stack has two layers.

Pre-deployment scanning finds vulnerabilities in code. Runtime governance controls what agents do once they're running.

Project Glasswing addresses the first layer. No initiative — until Vaultak — has addressed the second.

By the numbers

92%

of security leaders are concerned about AI agents and their security impact

Cloud Security Alliance, 2026

$4.6M

average cost per shadow AI breach: $670K more than a standard breach

IBM Cost of a Data Breach, 2025

48%

of cybersecurity professionals identify agentic AI as the single most dangerous attack vector

Dark Reading poll, 2026

6%
