Synchronous Control Monitoring: Preventing Harmful Agent Actions in Real Time
Check Point, Tuesday, September 15th, 2026
Check Point describes synchronous control monitoring that blocks harmful AI agent actions before execution at sub-100ms latency.
Check Point presents synchronous control monitoring, an approach to keeping AI agents aligned by overseeing execution as it happens.
A monitor model continuously ingests the agent's trace as context and intercepts harmful actions before they execute, operating at sub-100 millisecond latency.
The post explains how this differs from after-the-fact auditing, which cannot prevent damage already done. It covers the architecture and the throughput characteristics needed to sit inline with agent execution.
