FAQ about Authensor

QWhat is Authensor?

Authensor is an open-source guardrail and governance layer that sits in front of AI agents, enforcing policies, scanning inputs/outputs, and recording every decision for audit.

QWhich problems does it solve?

It stops agents from calling tools they shouldn’t, blocks prompt-injection attacks, prevents sensitive data leaks, and gives you a full audit trail.

QWhich agent frameworks are supported?

LangChain, OpenAI Assistants, Claude, CrewAI, Vercel AI SDK and MCP; SDKs make integration one-line.

QCan I self-host Authensor?

Yes—the core is MIT-licensed and ships as Docker containers. A managed dashboard is optional.

QHow does the approval workflow work?

High-risk actions return an ASK verdict; you route it to humans via Slack, email or ticket, with webhooks, timeouts and multi-party sign-off.

QDoes it provide audit logs?

Every decision is written to an append-only, hash-chained ledger you can stream to SIEM or store offline.

QIs Authensor free?

The open-source engine is free; the cloud dashboard and enterprise support are paid—see the pricing page for details.

QIs Authensor SOC 2 or ISO certified?

The docs say the architecture maps to SOC 2 controls, but no third-party certification is claimed—verify current status with the vendor.
