As enterprises scale autonomous AI agents into production, enabling safe innovation requires robust architectural guardrails. AI agents connect across tools and datasets, so it’s essential to establish clear network-level boundaries for comprehensive data protection.

To help organizations confidently deploy these workflows, we recommend VPC Service Controls (VPC-SC) to establish an essential network-level, destination-based perimeter. Today we’re announcing several new capabilities specifically designed for agentic workloads.

What's new in VPC Service Controls

Designed to enhance AI security, the new capabilities we’re announcing today strengthen boundaries enforced by VPC-SC.

The capability updates include:

  • Agent identity in directional rules: Enforcing least-privilege access requires treating agents as first-class identities. You can now add agentic identities directly to service perimeter ingress and egress rules using standard Identity and Access Management (IAM) principals. A single principal maps to an individual agent, while a principalSetmaps to a broader collection of agents. PrincipalSets lets administrators...
