# Keystrike > Keystrike is an intent-based security platform for AI agents and privileged access — the platform that verifies every action, human or AI, is bound to an authorized person. It sees remote sessions and AI activity, verifies in real time that a real, authorized person is behind each action, and turns governed sessions into cryptographic, tamper-evident evidence. "Intent" means proof a real person is behind the action — not a probabilistic guess at an agent's purpose. Key facts: complements and strengthens IAM, MFA, PAM, ZTNA, IGA, EDR, and SIEM (does not replace them). Deterministic verification of physical human input on supported interactive protocols (RDP, SSH, VNC, TeamViewer, NinjaOne, SplashTop). Agentless visibility into AI activity from managed endpoints is running with current clients today, included for every customer; AI-agent enforcement is in early access. Evidence organizations compile into their compliance reporting, aligned to frameworks including NIST CSF and NIS2. ## Platform - [Keystrike — Intent-Based Security for AI Agents & Privileged Access](https://keystrike.com/): An intent-based security platform for AI agents and privileged access — see, control, and prove every action, with cryptographic evidence. - [Privileged Remote Access & AI Agent Security | Keystrike](https://keystrike.com/platform/): An intent-based security platform for AI agents and privileged access — see, control, and prove every action on your systems, with cryptographic evidence.
