What's new in Cogent: Multi-tier system ownership. Read about it here
AI trust and governance
Built for enterprises that need governance
AI in security can't be a black box when you're making decisions that affect availability, compliance, and risk posture. Cogent is built to give humans control over AI, with explainability and auditability built into the core of the platform.
Control every action
Set approval gates, policy constraints, and confidence thresholds that match your risk tolerance
Understand every decision
See the data sources, reasoning, and confidence level behind each recommendation
Audit every outcome
Track what happened, when, why, and who approved it, with evidence that remediation actually closed the vulnerability
Controllable
Humans control what AI can do
Cogent puts you in control of what actions the AI can take, when human approval is required, and how autonomy scales across different environments.
explainable
See why AI made each decision
Generic severity scores create friction between security and engineering. Cogent shows you the exact factors that drove each priority so teams understand the reasoning and trust the recommendations.
AuditabilE
Prove outcomes with evidence
Recommendations mean nothing without verified results. Cogent tracks remediation to confirmed closure and generates audit trails that prove work was completed.
How Cogent prevents hallucinations
AI that makes things up is unacceptable in security. Cogent is built with multiple validation layers to prevent incorrect recommendations.
Grounded in your data
Uses retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to pull facts based on data from your enterprise data stores instead of from generic training data or internet sources. Our AI only reasons over verified data from your environment.
Continuous validation
Proprietary models fine-tuned specifically for security data enable semantic search that retrieves relevant context instantly based on how your environment describes assets, vulnerabilities, and controls.
Multiple guardrails
Validation layers protect against errors: relevance filtering ensures only validated data enters reasoning, source validation verifies claims against your internal systems and trusted vendor feeds, and output review checks policy compliance and factual accuracy.
Escalation over guessing
When confidence is low or data is incomplete, agents surface unknowns and escalate to humans. The system pulls additional sources or requests confirmation but won't fill gaps with assumptions.
Protecting Cogent’s AI systems from adversarial attacks
AI introduces new attack surfaces: prompt injection, jailbreaks, model misuse, context leakage. Cogent's AI is hardened against these threats.
Input validation
All inputs are sanitized before reaching language models to block prompt injection attempts and adversarial queries designed to manipulate model behavior.
Sandboxed execution
AI agents operate in isolated environments with least-privilege access, ensuring they can only access data within their designated scope and cannot affect other system components.
Customer data isolation
Each customer operates within a fully isolated data enclave that is logically and physically separated with no shared compute, storage, or pipelines that could enable cross-customer information leakage.
Continuous monitoring
Embedded detection mechanisms continuously flag unusual model behavior, anomalous query patterns, or unexpected outputs, enabling real-time response to potential adversarial attacks.
Built to meet enterprise security standards
Enterprise-grade security and compliance are foundational to the trust we build with customers.
Compliance certifications
Full audit documentation available for frameworks like SOC 2 Type 2, demonstrating adherence to industry-standard security and privacy controls.
SSO and MFA support
Seamless integration with enterprise identity providers including Okta, Azure AD, and Google Workspace, with mandatory multi-factor authentication for all user access.
Role-based access control
Granular permission controls enable you to restrict Portal access by team membership, environment type, and product surface to enforce least-privilege principles across your organization.
Audit log retention
Complete audit trail of all system actions, user activities, and AI decisions, retained according to your data governance policies with full traceability for compliance reporting.
