AI agents need new security: SecuriX builds policy-as-code broker

To address this, the author's company is developing SecuriX, an Agent Access Security Broker that uses Policy-as-Code with Open Policy Agent (OPA) and Rego to define granular, mathematical boundaries for AI agent actions, ensuring infrastructure security even when models err. AI
