Progent introduces a novel approach for controlling LLM agent privileges, enforcing the principle of least privilege to prevent security risks.

• Creates a programmable security layer between LLM agents and execution environments
• Enables fine-grained privilege control adaptable to different scenarios and security requirements
• Demonstrates effectiveness by blocking 100% of malicious commands while preserving agent functionality
• Provides a flexible framework that balances security with utility for enterprise adoption

This research addresses critical security concerns for organizations deploying LLM agents, offering a practical solution that protects systems while maintaining AI capabilities.
