Brex CEO Pedro Franceschi presented at VB Transform 2026 an innovative approach to securely deploying AI agents like OpenClaw within enterprises. Viewing AI not as vague agents but as virtual employees, Brex created a security model shifting focus from controlling agent code to monitoring network traffic. Their open-source proxy, CrabTrap, watches outbound network connections and uses a large language model (LLM) to judge if actions comply with policy, flagging suspicious behavior for human review. This approach acknowledges AI agents’ coding power while ensuring security through network-level oversight, offering a new paradigm for safely integrating AI into corporate environments.
