WARDEN is TrustNovaOps' seventh Nova agent — an AI-powered, agentic security control layer that monitors, classifies, reasons, and acts across your entire data surface. Not a scanner. Not a checkbox. A persistent, autonomous guardian wired into every layer of your infrastructure.
WARDEN fills the gap traditional DLP tools cannot — reasoning about data risk, not just detecting it.
WARDEN is a continuously-running AI agent embedded into TrustNovaOps' Nova orchestrator. Its mission: discover, classify, monitor, and protect every sensitive data asset across your entire infrastructure — and generate the compliance evidence to prove it.
Unlike traditional DLP tools that scan on a schedule and alert on rule matches, WARDEN reasons continuously. It understands context — who touched a file, where it moved, how that compares to their baseline behavior, and what that means for your CMMC 2.0 or FedRAMP posture — then takes calibrated action.
WARDEN operates as part of the broader Nova agent ecosystem. It shares telemetry with SENTINEL (endpoint), STRIKER (threat response), LEDGER (audit), and ACCORD (compliance) — closing the loop between data visibility, active protection, and regulatory evidence in a single, coordinated control plane.
Twelve core capabilities that together cover your entire sensitive data surface — from cloud buckets to git commits.
WARDEN runs a continuous, closed-loop agentic cycle — from raw observation to documented remediation.
From federal primes to DevSecOps pipelines — WARDEN was designed for organizations where data protection is a mission-critical requirement, not a checkbox.
TrustNovaOps already delivers exceptional infrastructure visibility, endpoint control, and compliance reporting through the existing Nova agent fleet. But the platform has a structural gap: it monitors what happens to systems, not what happens to the data those systems process.
SENTINEL locks down ports. STRIKER isolates endpoints. LEDGER builds an audit trail. But none of them can tell you: what sensitive data was involved, where it originated, what compliance control was implicated, and whether evidence exists to prove the response was adequate.
WARDEN closes that loop. It transforms TrustNovaOps from a security operations platform into a holistic data governance and protection platform — one where every security event is automatically contextualized with data classification, compliance mapping, and remediation evidence.

WARDEN is TrustNovaOps' AI-powered data protection agent. It discovers sensitive data, monitors how it moves, enforces your policies, and auto-generates the compliance evidence that proves it — across every cloud, endpoint, pipeline, and repository in your environment. Continuously. Autonomously. Without waiting for an audit.
WARDEN is the seventh Nova agent in the TrustNovaOps platform — a purpose-built AI agent for data loss prevention, sensitive data governance, and compliance evidence automation. While traditional DLP tools scan and alert, WARDEN reasons. It classifies your data, tracks how it moves, scores the risk, and acts — autonomously for known threats, and with human-in-the-loop precision for everything else. Every action is automatically mapped to your compliance framework and preserved as audit-ready evidence, so your CMMC, FedRAMP, or HIPAA posture is always provable — not just assumed.
From raw telemetry to documented remediation — WARDEN runs the full cycle without a human in the loop for known threats. For everything else, it brings the analyst in at exactly the right moment, with everything they need already assembled.
WARDEN was designed from the ground up for organizations where compliance isn't optional. It speaks the language of federal frameworks natively — and generates the evidence to prove it.
30-day full trial. No credit card. A TrustNovaOps engineer walks you through a live deployment against your actual data environment.
Eight interconnected components — all coordinated by the Nova orchestrator, all sharing a unified data and telemetry plane.
Traditional DLP tools were built to block file transfers. WARDEN was built to protect data — and prove it.
| Capability | Traditional DLP (Symantec, Forcepoint, etc.) |
WARDEN / TrustNovaOps |
|---|---|---|
| Detection Method | Scheduled scans + regex pattern matching | Continuous AI reasoning with behavioral and contextual scoring |
| Coverage | Endpoint, email, web — siloed per product | Endpoint, cloud, CI/CD, repo, log, telemetry — unified agent |
| Source Code / Repo Scanning | Not included — separate tool required | Native — pre-commit, PR, and historical commit scanning |
| CI/CD Pipeline Inspection | Not included | Native — artifact, env var, and IaC scanning |
| Compliance Evidence Generation | Manual — screenshots and spreadsheets at audit time | Automated — continuous, framework-mapped, timestamped packages |
| Insider Risk Correlation | Basic — per-event rules, no behavioral baseline | Advanced — user risk scores built from behavioral patterns over time |
| Palantir Foundry Integration | Not available | Native ontology-level classification and governance |
| Policy-as-Code | GUI-only policy editor, no version control | YAML/Rego policies, git-versioned, instant propagation |
| Cross-Agent Correlation | Isolated — no context from other security tools without SIEM | Native — shares context with SENTINEL, STRIKER, LEDGER, ACCORD |
| Agentic Autonomous Response | Alert only — requires human to execute remediation | Autonomous remediation for known threats; HITL for complex cases |
| Federal Framework Alignment | Some HIPAA/PCI support — weak CMMC/FedRAMP mapping | CMMC 2.0, NIST 800-53, FedRAMP, DFARS, RMF — native |
| Deployment Model | On-prem agent + separate cloud connector + separate email gateway | Single Nova agent, unified orchestrator, API-first connectors |
| Time to Value | Months — complex rule tuning, high false positive rate initially | Hours — AI baseline establishes automatically; policies deploy as code |
Standalone product, module, or part of NovaShield? Here's the case for each — and the recommended path.
Ship WARDEN as AGT-07 in the TrustNovaOps platform immediately — it's the fastest path to market and delivers the strongest product differentiation. Price it as an add-on tier (e.g., $8–$15/workstation/month above Operator). In parallel, develop the NovaShield suite brand as the premium federal/enterprise bundle that wraps WARDEN, SENTINEL, STRIKER, LEDGER, and ACCORD into a single, ATO-aligned offering. This two-track approach captures both the platform customer and the enterprise federal buyer.
