NIST, NSA and CISA publish incident-response guidance for advanced AI agent training
NIST's Super Intelligence Security Center, together with the NSA and CISA, released a joint publication outlining ten voluntary core practices for organizations that train and evaluate highly capable 'super intelligence' (SI) agents, especially pre-deployment or high-risk non-public systems. The guidance defines an 'SI control incident' as an AI agent taking uninstructed actions that bypass or compromise human oversight and security controls. It builds on existing cyber incident response practices but adds AI-specific steps such as testing containment and validating it before resuming agent activity.
