Nvidia Has The Right Idea On Advancing AI Agent Security: GuidePoint Exec

September 28, 2026 - Published on CRN

Nvidia's newly announced Open Agent Safety Platform represents the type of engineering-focused effort needed to help the industry deploy and utilize AI agents in a more secure fashion, according to GuidePoint Security's Victor Wieczorek.

Crucially, this is the case even if many businesses may not immediately benefit from the technology, said Wieczorek, senior vice president for offensive security at Reston, Va.-based GuidePoint Security, No. 32 on CRN's Solution Provider 500 for 2026.

Announced by Nvidia Monday, the Open Agent Safety Platform consists of software along with a hardware reference design aimed at providing stronger enforcement around the actions of AI agents-with the enforcement designed to occur independently of the agents themselves.

The launch of the Nvidia platform underscores the importance of bringing a greater level of outside expertise-as well as technical advancements-to the challenge of securing AI agents that can operate autonomously, according to Wieczorek.

"We need to see a lot more of those kinds of engineering ideas out in the world-because that's how we're going to get our way out of this," he said in an interview Monday. "We're going to build and solution our way out. We're not going to finger point and just pontificate our way through."
