The Stop Rogue AI Act directs Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology to develop and publish standards, guidelines and best practices for how organizations can securely deploy AI agents. The standards should cover how organizations can continuously maintain and verify the actions that agents take on their systems; evaluate the security and reliability of AI agents; and generate tamper-proof logs of the actions that agents take. Organizations deploying AI agents would also call on companies to maintain a "continuous, machine-readable inventory of all AI agents" and work with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency to ensure that federal civilian agencies apply the standards in their security programs.

Lawler is co-introducing the Stop Rogue AI Act, which would have NIST create secure AI agent deployment standards and require related inventories, logs, evaluations, and federal civilian agency implementation.
