5. The Orchestrator Capability Manifest: Governing Tool Access, Prompt Integrity and Model Authorization in Multi-Agent AI Systems

Multi-agent AI systems create an authorization problem most security frameworks were never built to address.

That power comes with real tradeoffs: expanded attack surface, harder audit trails and governance gaps most teams underestimate. Article 6 of Aptive’s Agentic AI Governance Series lays out the risk taxonomy, a control baseline mapped to NIST 800-53 and the architecture patterns that hold up in regulated environments.
