Lyzr launches OpenController, an in-cluster unified control plane designed to discover, monitor, and enforce real-time security policies across enterprise AI agents.
OpenController is a unified control plane developed by Lyzr to tackle the rising problem of AI agent sprawl across cloud environments, SaaS platforms, Kubernetes, and edge devices. Rather than operating as a passive metadata catalog or registry, OpenController deploys directly within an organization's own cluster under customer-managed keys. It discovers active models, agents, and workflows, evaluates them for safety and compliance, provides real-time observability, and actively intercepts requests to block policy-violating agent actions directly in the execution path.
As autonomous AI agents proliferate across enterprise stacks, passive monitoring is no longer enough—runtime, in-path policy enforcement is becoming table stakes to prevent runaway agent behavior and shadow AI.
- –In-path policy enforcement: Acting as an active gatekeeper rather than a passive observer allows teams to reliably block unauthorized actions, data leaks, and policy breaches in real time.
- –Private cluster deployment: Running natively inside customer infrastructure addresses enterprise compliance, privacy, and data sovereignty requirements that third-party SaaS registries cannot meet.
- –Solving agentic shadow IT: Providing automated discovery across heterogeneous frameworks bridges the observability gap between fragmented engineering teams and central IT/security.
- –Latency and reliability overhead: Siting a control plane inline within recursive agentic reasoning loops risks adding latency and potential points of failure to mission-critical workflows.
