NVIDIA unveiled the Open Agent Safety Platform (OASP) in September 2026, coupling the open‑source OpenShell runtime with the Sentry watchdog reference design that runs on BlueField‑4 DPUs. OpenShell provides kernel‑level isolation, sandboxed execution, and per‑outbound‑request policy checks, while Sentry monitors agent behavior out‑of‑band and can quarantine or halt malicious agents within milliseconds. The platform targets governance of agents on enterprise‑controlled infrastructure, aiming to move enforcement outside the model and into hardware. Analysts estimate it addresses less than 25% of enterprise agentic risk, leaving SaaS, third‑party, and attacker‑introduced agents ungoverned.
