By Agent Type
The security layer between users and autonomous AI.
Overview
Desktop agents operate locally on employee devices, IDEs, browsers, and desktop applications. Coding agents and AI assistants like Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and desktop productivity agents can read files, run commands, call tools, and automate work in real time.
Integrations
Local and desktop agents are powerful because they sit close to the user’s actual work. They can access files, repositories, terminals, applications, credentials, and local context to automate everyday tasks.
Developer tools like Claude Code and OpenAI Codex can operate with broad access and increasing autonomy, creating security risk because they can run commands, connect to tools, and access sensitive company data.
Security Risks
Coding agents operate closer to sensitive data than almost any other AI system in the enterprise. Local agents can introduce endpoint-level risks such as:
Local data leakage from files, documents, source code, credentials, or clipboard contents.
Unauthorized actions such as running commands, modifying files, opening tickets, or calling APIs.
Source code exposure when coding agents interact with repositories or proprietary systems.
Malicious MCP or tool connections that give agents unsafe capabilities.
Prompt injection through local files or webpages that causes agents to misuse access.
Limited enterprise visibility because activity may happen inside an IDE, browser, or desktop app.
How TrojAI Helps
TrojAI helps enterprises secure desktop agents without blocking productivity, giving security teams visibility and control over agent actions across user environments.
Limit what agents can read, retrieve, modify, or send outside approved boundaries.
Monitor for suspicious prompts, unsafe tool use, data exfiltration, and unauthorized actions.
Reduce the risk of source code, secrets, tokens, and proprietary data being exposed through agent workflows.
Apply policy checks before agents act on files, commands, APIs, or external services.
Let employees benefit from coding and desktop agents while giving security teams visibility and control.
