About

Knostic is an enterprise AI security platform purpose-built to enforce need-to-know access controls across LLM deployments. Rather than securing files at rest, it secures the knowledge layer — the space where static enterprise data becomes AI-generated insights — simulating thousands of employee queries to surface oversharing paths before they become incidents. Its core products include Kirin for securing AI coding agents, AgentMesh for mapping and monitoring your AI supply chain across MCP servers, plugins, and IDE extensions, and OpenAnt for open-source vulnerability discovery. Knostic continuously audits what each employee's AI interactions can reach, enforces least-privilege inference policies in real time, and generates audit trails mapping every AI-generated insight back to its source.
