THE HUMAN OVERRIDE / INTERACTIVE TOUR

Your command.
Their full stop.

Watch the control model in action. Introduce an incident, detonate the kill switch, and see how a human decision becomes a coordinated shutdown.

    04 / BEHIND THE SWITCH

    One decision.
    A coordinated response.

    The product direction, made visible.
    Each enforcement path needs a real integration.

    CONTROL

    A separate authority.

    The stop command originates outside the agent’s own permissions. Human control remains available after agent execution is halted.

    CONTAIN + REVOKE

    Cut the ability to act.

    Stop connected workloads, block their tools and network paths, and revoke credentials at the issuer. Verify each path independently.

    RECOVER

    A deliberate restart.

    Keep incident evidence, review the cause, and require human approval before restoring a workload’s execution or access.

    A real kill switch only covers integrated systems under your authority. Unconnected agents, independent copies, and completed actions need separate response procedures.

    TURN THE CONCEPT INTO A PLAN

    Map your own off switch.

    KILLSWITCH / HUMAN-AUTHORIZED RECOVERY

    Stopped means stopped.
    Until you decide.

    In this demo, a restart stays locked until you complete the review below. These acknowledgements reset the simulation only.

    ✓ Simulated execution nodes stopped
    ✓ Tool, credential, and network access cut
    ✓ Illustrative incident record preserved

    No real workloads, credentials, or infrastructure will be changed.
