Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway's Security Gaps Highlighted

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway, while useful for controlling agent tool calls with Cedar policies, has limitations in detecting malicious sequences. The gateway lacks session memory, allowing agents to execute harmful actions by chaining seemingly innocuous steps that individually pass policy checks. Additionally, the gateway does not monitor model API calls, enabling agents to exfiltrate sensitive data provided through tool access directly to model providers like Anthropic or OpenAI. To address these gaps, the author proposes SwarmSentinel for tool path integrity and SwarmSheriff for model path security, introducing concepts like Agent Security Policy (ASP) and taint propagation.

    What Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway Can't See

    <p>Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway is a sensible place to put agent controls. Every tool call an agent makes through it can be checked against a Cedar policy before the tool runs, the decision is deterministic and lands in an audit log, and Lambda interceptors let you run your o…
