What it does

Most AI security tools just watch. AxioRank enforces. It sits between your AI agents and the tools, APIs, and data they touch, giving every action three things competitors don't combine: short-lived identity instead of static keys, default-deny policy you control, and a signed audit trail you can verify offline (no trust in us required). Open AGS-1 spec, drop-in gateway, works with any agent or MCP server.

AxioRank is the security gateway for AI agents. Before any agent touches your MCP servers, APIs, and databases, it routes the call through a gateway that gives the agent a short-lived identity, enforces your policy, scores the risk, and writes a redacted audit trail in under 100ms. It also verifies the agents that visit your site.

Short-lived identity, default-deny policy, and a signed audit trail on every tool call. Put AxioRank in front of every agent. Before a call reaches an MCP server, an API, or a database, it passes through the gateway: a short-lived identity, your policy, a risk score, and a signed audit trail. Nothing the agent does skips the checkpoint. Give a model tools and it can read your database, push code, and call your cloud. The same autonomy that makes agents useful makes a single bad tool call catastrophic. A tool call carries a live cloud key straight to an external service, one paste from exfiltration. Generated SQL runs without a WHERE clause and rewrites or deletes an entire table. Hostile…from axiorank.com

    Many teams connecting LLMs to external tools eventually encounter the same architectural issue: as more tools and agents are added, the integration pattern becomes an N×M mesh of direct connections. Each agent implements its own auth, retries, rate limiting, and logging; each tool needs credentials distributed to multiple places and observability becomes fragmented. We built LLM gateway with this goal to provide a single place to manage authentication, authorization, routing, and observability for MCP servers, with a path toward a more general agent-gateway architecture in the future. The…

  • Open-Source Gateway to Stop Tool-Abusing Prompt Injections2025 · archestra.ai · ▲9

    Hi HN, Matvey, Ildar, Joey, and Dominik here. If you're building LLM agents that use tools, you're probably worried about prompt injection attacks that can hijack those tools. We were too, and found that solutions like prompt-based filtering or secondary "guard" LLMs can be unreliable. Our thesis is that agent security should be handled at the network level between the agent and the LLM, just like a traditional web application firewall. So we built Archestra Platform: an open-source gateway that acts as a secure proxy for your AI agents. It's designed to be a deterministic firewall against…

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
