Your AI Agents Are Making Decisions You Can't See. That's a Problem.
Organizations are deploying AI faster than they can govern it. Kammil Mahajan built Sector 8 to give leaders visibility into what their AI actually does.
AI Adoption Is Accelerating Beyond Governance
Across industries, AI adoption is no longer experimental. Customer service agents, internal copilots, and autonomous workflows are being deployed at speed. Boards want efficiency. Teams want scale. Regulators want accountability. What sits between those forces is a growing gap in visibility.
For many organizations, AI still behaves like a black box. Leaders know what goes in and what comes out, but not how decisions are made along the way. That uncertainty creates hesitation, especially in highly regulated industries such as finance and healthcare. Security teams are often the ones applying the brakes, not because they oppose AI, but because they cannot control it with existing tools.
This is the gap industries such as has spent his career preparing for. After more than fifteen years in enterprise cybersecurity and operations, he has seen what happens when systems scale faster than safeguards. He has managed high-pressure environments at global technology companies and studied AI security at the academic level. He says AI introduces new threat vectors that traditional cybersecurity was never designed to handle.
Observability Changes How Companies Deploy AI
Mahajan is the founder of Sector 8, an AI security and observability platform built to give organizations visibility into what their AI systems are actually doing. Sector 8 does not replace existing security stacks. It sits on top of AI deployments as a dedicated layer that monitors behaviour, enforces guardrails, and helps teams understand risk in real time.
One of the most common entry points for AI adoption is customer service. AI-powered chat agents operate around the clock and interact with the public, which opens the door to prompt injection and data leakage. Sector 8 protects these agents by monitoring inputs and outputs, flagging malicious behaviour, and ensuring sensitive data stays protected.
The same applies inside the organization. Finance teams increasingly rely on AI agents for invoice processing and reconciliation. These systems move money. Without accountability, a single error can cascade quickly. Sector 8 provides traceability so teams can see what actions an agent took, when it took them, and why. That visibility creates confidence, not friction.
For Mahajan, observability is not a technical luxury. It is the foundation that allows security leaders and executives to answer hard questions from boards and regulators with clarity rather than caution.
Control Makes the Next Wave of AI Possible
AI security incidents already carry multimillion-euro consequences before regulatory fines are even considered. With frameworks like the EU AI Act demanding visibility and accountability, the cost of operating blindly is rising fast. Sector 8 exists to make AI adoption safer, not slower.
Mahajan is optimistic about what comes next. He sees a future where autonomous agents handle complex tasks across industries, from operations to healthcare. The opportunity is enormous, but only if humans retain meaningful control. His goal is to ensure there is always a clear, safe mode, a kill switch, and an audit trail when systems act on our behalf.
Sector 8 emerged from stealth after strong traction at global tech events and is onboarding beta customers across Europe and the United States. The company plans to generate revenue in early 2026 while raising its first institutional round.
Mahajan believes we should be able to embrace the benefits of AI with confidence. Visibility creates trust. Control enables scale. And without both, the future of AI will stall under its own risk.
