Governance isn't a feature.
It's the architecture.
SageOS was built governance-first. Not as an add-on, not as a compliance checkbox — as the core architectural principle that every other feature depends on.
Six pillars of governed autonomy
Each pillar is a foundational capability — not a roadmap item. These are built, tested, and demonstrated in our pilot environment.
Policy Engine
85+ configurable rules across 7 categories. Every agent action is evaluated against the active policy set before execution. Policies are versioned, auditable, and tier-classified.
- Tier-based action classification
- Category-specific rule sets
- Policy versioning & rollback
- Change audit trail
Approval Workflows
Multi-tier approval chains mapped to your organizational authority structure. CEO, CISO, and General Counsel for external communications. On-call responders for operational decisions.
- 3-tier escalation model
- SLA-driven auto-escalation
- Teams-native approval cards
- Approval context & reasoning
Audit Logs
Every decision, approval, execution, and outcome is logged with timestamps, actor attribution, and full context. Immutable, searchable, and exportable.
- Immutable event log
- Timeline visualization
- Full-text search
- Export to SIEM/GRC tools
Kill Switch
Instantly halt any agent, any workflow, or all autonomous operations organization-wide. One-click emergency stop with automatic evidence preservation.
- Per-agent halt
- Organization-wide freeze
- Automatic state preservation
- Post-halt audit report
Identity Governance
Single executor identity — not individual agent accounts. All M365 actions flow through one governed mailbox with full attribution to the originating agent and authorizing policy.
- Single executor mailbox
- Agent-level attribution
- Policy-level authorization tracking
- Graph API audit integration
Evidence Packs
Automatically generated compliance artifacts: decision timelines, approval chains, action logs, and outcomes. Structured data + PDF reports uploaded to SharePoint.
- Auto-generated on workflow completion
- PDF + structured JSON
- SharePoint upload with metadata
- Regulatory template mapping
Built for the auditor's visit
SageOS doesn't claim certifications — we deliver the architecture, evidence trails, and controls that make certification achievable.
Data Protection
- Minimal data collection — agents only access what policies allow
- Audit logs capture what was accessed, when, and why
- Evidence packs document data handling for regulators
Access Control
- Role-based approval authority — not blanket admin access
- Single executor identity with full attribution
- Approval chains map to organizational hierarchy
Incident Response
- Automated containment with human oversight
- Evidence preservation built into every workflow
- Complete timeline from detection to resolution
Audit Readiness
- Immutable, tamper-evident log architecture
- On-demand evidence pack generation
- Policy version history with change justifications
The Kill Switch
Every enterprise deploying autonomous AI needs an emergency stop. SageOS provides granular and organization-wide kill switches that instantly halt agent operations while preserving state and evidence.
When activated, all in-flight actions are frozen, pending approvals are suspended, and a comprehensive post-halt audit report is generated automatically. Your team maintains full control at all times.
