Runtime just got a major upgrade.
Runtime, not build-time.
Production is where agents encounter real data, real users, and real edge cases — and where untested behavior surfaces. Alterion's control plane sits in the runtime, inspecting every prompt and action, blocking violations before they execute.
Agent-native control.
Helix is Alterion's runtime intelligence layer, powered by a network of specialized models that understand prompts, intent, and business context to keep agents within policy. It adapts to each deployment's specific agents, data, and risk profile.
Secure deployment
Alterion runs entirely in-tenant, including Helix's specialized models. Prompts, agent telemetry, and business context never leave the enterprise cloud environment.
Any agent. Anywhere.
AWS. GCP. Azure. Hybrid. On-prem. On-device. Agents span infrastructure — Alterion spans it with them. Lightweight runtime sensors map every agent, prompt, and action across the stack, so every agent is visible and governed in days, not months.
Days to deploy. Zero engineering lift.
No SDKs. No code changes. No agent rewrites. No six-month integration project. Alterion deploys at the infrastructure layer, giving security and GRC teams full control without pulling engineering off roadmap.
Self-Improving.
Secure.
Scalable.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Alterion deploys lightweight, runtime-level sensors across your infrastructure—monitoring network flows, container behavior, endpoint activity, and application logs—to build a continuously updated map of every agent and their behaviors. There are no code changes, no SDK integrations, and no modifications to how your agents are built or deployed.
Alterion supports agents deployed on any cloud including AWS, Azure and GCP. We are agent agnostic and support agents built through any agent development framework including Langchain, CrewAI etc.
Alterion's policy engine lets you define rules once and enforce them everywhere. Import your existing compliance policies in plain language or CSV format—Alterion's Small Language Models translates them into actionable rules and applies them to the right agents and boundaries across every cloud, automatically.
We believe agents are a new class of technology that require a different paradigm to managing, securing and governing, that does not fit in the existing enterprise IT stack. This is why we built Alterion, the intelligent runtime control plane for agents, providing comprehensive observability, security, governance and optimization for enterprises.
We believe that detecting every agent in the enterprise, especially unsanctioned or shadow agents, requires detection at the runtime (malicious actors will not use your SDK!). Additionally, we believe engineering and business teams should focus on launching agents and driving business value quickly, not being slowed down by SDK integrations and dev time assessments. Enabling governance at the runtime enables your business to move fast and stay competitive, while providing governance at the only time that matters - when the agent is running autonomously with production data and systems.
Identity tools know who an agent is. Alterion knows what it's doing. Agents aren't users; they don't have job titles, org charts, or intent you can read from a permission set. Alterion was built from first principles for non-deterministic, autonomous systems. That's a fundamentally different architecture than retrofitting an IAM tool.
Traditional policy tools enforce rules based on access permissions (what an agent can do.) Alterion's contextual boundaries enforce rules based on intent (what an agent should be doing given its purpose, team, and environment). A finance agent can't talk to the customer support database not because of a hardcoded rule, but because the system understands the agent's purpose and baseline behaviour, and prevents actions outside their intended scope.
Yes. Alterion monitors prompts flowing through your agents in real time and flags injection patterns—including attempts to override system instructions or escalate permissions through text, files or images. When detected, we trigger remediation automatically.
