# Configure automatic AI agent containment

Connect an identity provider and the AI agent runtime platforms to AI Control Tower so a Threat Response policy can automatically contain an AI agent using kill switch protocol.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_ai\_governance.ai\_steward

## About this task

To let a Threat Response policy automatically contain an AI agent using kill switch protocol, you must have:

-   A connection between AI Control Tower and each AI agent runtime or infrastructure platform that hosts the agents the policy covers. These connectors are supported:
    -   AWS Bedrock
    -   AWS Bedrock Agent Core
    -   Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform \(agents with unique identities only\)
    -   Azure AI Foundry
    -   ServiceNow Agents
    -   Agent Client Collector \(ACC\)
-   A connection between AI Control Tower and an identity provider is optional. Okta is supported.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **AI Control Tower** > **Settings** > **Integrations** > **Control Enforcement Points**.

2.  Select the connector from the **Available connectors** sub-tab and follow the guided setup wizard.

    For more information, see [Configuring security connections](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/intelligent-experiences/aict-configuring-security-connections.md).


## Result

You can now create a Threat Response policy that automatically contains an AI agent using kill switch protocol on the connected platforms.
