# Adaptive > Adaptive is a trusted environment for running privileged AI agents in production. It provides the harness, tools, MCP registry, networking, and guardrails that let agents safely reach databases, Kubernetes clusters, VMs, cloud accounts, and internal services — under scoped, short-lived credentials with full audit and policy enforcement. Adaptive treats agents as the new perimeter. Instead of handing agents long-lived credentials or VPN access, teams give them a containment boundary: a policy envelope that brokers every connection, masks sensitive data in flight, records every action, and revokes access the moment a job ends. The same primitives also serve human operators, making Adaptive a unified privileged access layer for both people and autonomous systems. The platform is organized into three product surfaces: - **Bastion (Stratos)** — Infrastructure access for humans and agents. Just-in-time credentials, SSO/MFA, no shared secrets. - **Exo** — A secure agent harness with a tools/MCP registry, scoped networking, and guardrails for running privileged agents. - **Access / Authorization / Audit / Workloads / Monitor / Protect** — Underlying capabilities composed into the products above. ## Core - [Home](https://adaptive.live): Agents are the new perimeter — contain the chaos.
