Platform / Policy engine
Policy Engine
Author the rules that govern AI traffic - DLP patterns, tool allowlists, block and warn actions - and push them to every gateway agent as signed policy the agent verifies before it loads.

Problem
The gap Policy engine closes
Runtime controls are only as good as the policy behind them, and policy that ships unsigned or unversioned is its own attack surface. Teams need to author rules centrally and trust what lands on the agent.
How Penaxtra approaches it
How Penaxtra delivers Policy engine
Penaxtra centralises policy authoring - DLP patterns, tool allowlists, chain-detection patterns, and block or warn actions - in the control plane. Policy is compiled into Ed25519-signed blobs and distributed to self-hosted gateway agents, which refuse to load anything that fails signature verification. Every change is versioned and recorded in the audit log.
