AI Risk Management Platform for High-Stakes AI

AI risk management needs runtime control, not just model inventories and policy reviews. EVE AI Core intercepts AI and agent actions before execution, blocks or modifies what violates policy, and records every decision as signed, replayable evidence.

The Problem

AI risk management needs runtime control, not just review cycles

Traditional AI risk management lives in inventories, model cards, and periodic review committees. That is necessary — and insufficient. The risks that matter most in agentic and generative systems appear at execution time: a tool call that exfiltrates data, a prompt-injected instruction, a model asserting authority it does not have. EVE AI Core is an AI risk management platform that intercepts AI and agent actions before they execute, blocks or modifies what violates policy, and records every decision as signed, replayable evidence — so risk is controlled where it actually occurs, not just cataloged after the quarter closes.

The Threat Surface

The AI risks a runtime gate is built to contain

These are execution-time failure modes. A document review cannot stop them; a gate in front of the action can.

01 Prompt injection

Malicious instructions smuggled through content or tool output. The gate evaluates the resulting action against policy regardless of how the instruction arrived.

02 Data exfiltration

An agent attempting to move sensitive data out of bounds. Actions touching restricted data are blocked or modified before they run.

03 PII / PHI exposure

Sensitive fields surfaced where they should not be. PII-handling policy packs and tenant isolation are enforced at decision time.

04 Unsafe tool use

An agent calling a dangerous or unregistered tool. Tools must be in the governed registry to pass the gate at all.

05 Policy override

An attempt to talk the system past its own rules. HARD_BLOCK charter rules cannot be overridden by prompt.

06 Hallucinated authority

A model claiming permissions or approvals it was never granted. Authority is resolved against policy, not asserted by the model.

07 Agentic misbehavior

Multi-step autonomous plans drifting off-mandate. Every step is a separate governed decision with its own verdict and evidence.

08 Silent model change

A provider swap that quietly alters behavior. EVE governs the decision, not the model, and records the model route in evidence.

How Enforcement Works

How EVE CoreGuard blocks unsafe actions

EVE CoreGuard evaluates every proposed action before it executes and returns a deterministic ALLOW / BLOCK / MODIFY verdict against versioned policy packs — fail-closed, with no LLM in the decision path. A high-risk action never reaches the world unless it clears the gate; a blocked action still produces a signed record explaining exactly why it was stopped. Because the verdict is deterministic, the same inputs always produce the same decision — risk behavior you can predict and reproduce, not a probability you hope holds.

Proposed action agent · model · tool EVE CoreGuard gate versioned policy packs · risk score deterministic · fail-closed · zero-LLM ALLOW MODIFY BLOCK Ed25519-signed certificate hash-chained audit · offline verify · replay
Every governed decision passes the gate before execution; the verdict and its signed evidence are produced at the same instant — including for blocked actions.
Forensic Evidence

How EVE Proof turns each decision into evidence

Every decision — allowed or blocked — is provable after the fact

Risk management is only credible if you can reconstruct what the system did under pressure. With EVE AI Core, every decision emits an Ed25519-signed certificate via EVE Proof that a third party verifies offline, and decisions append to hash-chained audit trails that can be deterministically replayed to show the same inputs produce the same verdict. Each decision carries a risk score (LOW / MEDIUM / HIGH) and the policy-pack version in force, so an incident review starts from cryptographic fact, not reconstruction. See it for yourself on the verification portal.

Risk Visibility

Risk visibility for the people accountable for it

For the CRO & executives

A single, defensible view of what AI is permitted to do, what it was stopped from doing, and the risk posture of every governed decision.

For auditors & second line

Independently verifiable records — signed certificates and hash-chained trails — that hold up without trusting EVE's own dashboards.

For engineering & ML platform

A gate integrated by API or sidecar that fails closed, with per-decision latency and replay for debugging incidents.
