AI Agent Control Assurance

Your obligations were written when a person took the action. Autonomous agents take thousands, and the accountability does not move.

The problem

There is no AI rulebook to comply with. That is the problem.

Regulated enterprises are deploying autonomous agents into systems governed by rules written for human operators. Access must exist for a valid business need. Changes must be approved and documented. Every action against sensitive information must leave an audit trail detailed enough to serve as forensic evidence. An agent satisfies none of that by default: it holds broad credentials because narrow ones are inconvenient, it acts faster than any approval process, and its reasoning trace is not an audit trail, because an explanation of a decision is not a record of an action. The obligations already apply. Nothing yet proves they were met.

What it proves

4 obligations.

  1. 01
    Reserve Bank of India
    clause-mapped

    Every agent action left a forensic record.

    That every action an agent took against sensitive information produced a record naming the agent, the authority it acted under, the records touched, and the time. Not a model trace. A structured action record.

    RBI IT Governance, Risk, Controls and Assurance Practices Directions, 2023 · Sections 15(a) and 15(b)
  2. 02
    Reserve Bank of India
    clause-mapped

    The agent stayed inside its authorised boundary.

    For every action, that it fell inside the boundary the agent was authorised to operate in, and where an action fell outside it, that the breach was identified with the policy it violated rather than discovered later in a log review.

    RBI IT Governance Directions, 2023 · Section 19(a)
  3. 03
    Reserve Bank of India
    clause-mapped

    Changes an agent made were approved changes.

    That every state change an agent initiated maps to an approval, and that changes with no approval behind them are named rather than absorbed.

    RBI IT Governance Directions, 2023 · Section 13(c)
  4. 04
    Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023
    clause-mapped

    An agent touching personal data does not shift accountability.

    That agent access to personal data stayed inside the consented purpose, and that erasure and withdrawal obligations were honoured across records an agent touched.

    DPDP Act 2023 · Sections 8(7) and 12(3)

The same obligation can appear in several Directions, one per entity class, with different clause numbers. AssureNode binds your control to the clause in the instrument that applies to you.

Where we stop

No AI-specific Directions exist yet. These do.

RBI published the FREE-AI Committee Report, its Framework for Responsible and Ethical Enablement of Artificial Intelligence, in August 2025. It is a committee report and it is not binding. The obligations above are not AI regulation. They are the existing IT governance and data protection duties that already apply to any actor operating inside a regulated system, including an autonomous one. When AI-specific Directions arrive, they will land on top of these rather than replace them. That is why we prove against the obligations that bind today.

What you get

Answers that already exist.

Agent action ledger

Every action with the agent, the authority it acted under, and the records touched.

Boundary verdicts

Each action evaluated against the boundary the agent was authorised to operate in.

Unapproved change register

State changes with no approval behind them, named rather than absorbed.

Consent-scope verdicts

Whether agent access to personal data stayed inside the consented purpose.
