Third-Party Agents

Third-party agents are AI systems or software services developed and deployed by external vendors to perform specific business functions within an organization's environment. In enterprise governance contexts, they present unique compliance and security challenges since organizations must audit and monitor systems they don't directly control while maintaining accountability for their performance and data handling. Managing third-party agents requires establishing clear service level agreements, access controls, and continuous monitoring mechanisms to ensure they align with internal policies around data privacy, bias mitigation, and regulatory requirements.
