Why it matters
Agent exfiltration via legitimate tool combinations defeats standard egress controls, so defenders need sequence-, destination-, and volume-aware detection specific to agent-initiated traffic.
A Logiciel buyer's guide explains how data exfiltration through AI agents occurs when agents chain individually approved actions—reading a permitted source and passing its contents to a permitted outbound tool—producing egress that conventional protocol- and reputation-based controls fail to flag. It advocates treating agent-initiated traffic as its own category and applying tool-sequence visibility, outbound destination classification, volume/rate caps, and content inspection on tool parameters.
