Bitdefender announced on September 30, 2026 that its AI Guardian is now in public beta. The product runs as a background service on macOS and checks every tool call, file access, or credential use by an AI agent against a user‑defined policy. It can block prompt‑injection attacks, unsafe tool use, and data leaks before they happen. The beta is free and English‑only.

Why it matters

It gives developers and technical users direct control over what autonomous AI agents can do, reducing the risk of accidental data exposure or malicious actions.
