## NVIDIA Sentry and agent-safety enforcement
[[wiki/BlueField-4|BlueField-4]] is the hardware trust domain used by [[wiki/NVIDIA Sentry|NVIDIA Sentry]] in the [[wiki/NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform|NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform]] reference design. Sentry uses [[wiki/NVIDIA DOCA|NVIDIA DOCA]] on the DPU to inspect agent interactions, verify identity and delegated authority, produce attested telemetry, enforce zero-trust access policies and quarantine boundary violations independently of the agent and host software.
