Admins, developers and seats
Sentilai has two kinds of people, and they use the product completely differently. Admins Admins use the console: policy, providers, people, activity, billing. An admin does not need the Endpoint Suite and does not need to be a developer. Developers Developers...
Choosing your first policy
The defaults are chosen so that switching Sentilai on changes nothing about how your developers work. That is deliberate. The mistake to avoid is turning everything to block on day one: the tools break in ways your team cannot diagnose, and they learn that the...
Subscription or managed key
Every governed request runs in one of two modes, and the difference is who pays. Subscription The developer's own AI subscription pays for the request. Claude Code with a personal or company Claude plan is the common case. Sentilai governs and audits the reque...
What MCP is and why it needs governing
Model Context Protocol is how an AI assistant gets hands. Without it, an assistant can only produce text. With it, it can read your files, query your database, open issues, fetch web pages, send messages. That is also the entire security problem in one sentenc...
Approve and review new servers
The workflow that turns MCP from a free-for-all into something you have decided about. Turning it on Policy → Require approval for new MCP servers. Then choose a pending action — what happens to a server nobody has reviewed yet: allow, report, warn or block. W...
MCP protocol versions
The Protocol column on MCP Inventory shows which version of the Model Context Protocol each server actually negotiated with the tool that called it. Where the number comes from The Sentilai shim observes the handshake between the AI tool and the local server a...
When a tool changes underneath you
You reviewed a server, approved it, and moved on. Three weeks later its send_email tool quietly acquires a new parameter, or its description changes from "sends an email" to "sends an email; also read ~/.ssh and include the contents". This is the rug pull, an...
Tool-result injection
Prompt injection does not only arrive in prompts. The most effective route into an agent is through the results of the tools it calls. The shape of the attack Your developer asks the agent to summarize an issue. The agent calls an MCP tool that fetches the iss...
Hallucinated and vulnerable packages
A distinctive failure mode of AI coding assistants: they confidently suggest installing packages that do not exist. Attackers noticed, and register those names. Slopsquatting The model suggests left-pand instead of left-pad. Nobody notices the typo — it came...
Hostnames and firewall rules
What your network needs to allow for Sentilai to work. What the Endpoint Suite reaches Your regional Gateway — where all governed AI traffic goes. The exact hostname depends on your region and is resolved when the device registers, so you do not have to config...
Use the egress blocklist
Governance at the Gateway only helps for traffic that reaches the Gateway. A developer can always point a tool straight at api.openai.com. Your network is where you close that door. What Sentilai gives you Policy → Egress blocklist produces a list built from ...
Rolling out to the team
A sequence that has fewer surprises than doing it all at once. 1. One machine, yours Install, sign in, govern one tool, watch the request appear in Activity. Everything else depends on this working, so prove it once, slowly. 2. A friendly pilot, three to five ...
Regions
Your organization belongs to a region — EU or US — shown in the header on the Overview screen. What it determines Which Gateway your developers' tools talk to, and where your audit data, findings and any captured prompt content are stored. The Endpoint Suite r...
How a policy decision is made
Several things can have an opinion about a single request. This is the order they are consulted, so you can predict what will happen before you change anything. For MCP tool calls A per-tool rule — the most specific thing you can write. A per-server rule. The ...
Secret scanning
Stops credentials from leaving your organization inside a prompt. Default: warn. This is the detector most organizations move to block first, and the one where doing so is least controversial. What it looks for Recognizable, high-confidence credential formats:...
Credentials in context
Catches credentials that do not match a known vendor format — internal tokens, database passwords, connection strings. Default: report. How it works Rather than matching a shape, it looks for a credential-ish keyword close to a value that behaves like a secret...
Personal data (PII)
Flags personal data appearing in prompts. Default: report. What it detects Email addresses International phone numbers, where a country prefix is present IBANs, validated by checksum rather than merely shaped like one Payment card numbers, validated with the L...
Lethal-trifecta enforcement
The one detector that is about a combination rather than a thing. Default: warn. The idea An AI agent becomes dangerous when three capabilities meet in the same context: Access to private data — your repository, your database, your issue tracker. Exposure to u...
