What you'll learn

Reconstruct the Agent’s Full Decision Path

Trace prompts, plans, data access, tool calls, approvals, handoffs, and actions across the agent’s full workflow.

Find the Evidence Missing From Your Logs

Find gaps in timestamps, identities, permissions, model versions, retrieved data, tool results, and human approvals.

Separate Root Cause From the Final Error

Determine whether failure began with the model, memory, data, tool, permissions, human approval, or another agent.

Build an Audit Trail You Can Defend

Define the minimum evidence needed to investigate incidents and explain what happened to auditors and leaders.

Why this topic matters

When an AI agent fails, its final output rarely tells you why. The cause may sit several steps earlier in a prompt, retrieved file, memory update, permission change, tool response, human approval, or subagent handoff. If those events were not captured, you cannot reconstruct the incident, assign accountability, or prove your controls worked. Learn the minimum evidence needed to explain an agent failure with confidence.

I help you become the professional teams trust to govern AI agents.

Become the person your team turns to when an AI agent needs a risk review, clear controls, or a decision about whether it should go live.

Hi👋🏾, I'm François, founder of CyberProsAI and a Ph.D. scholar in Cyber Defense at Dakota State University. I teach governance, risk, audit, privacy, and cybersecurity professionals to turn AI governance principles into practical decisions they can explain and defend.

In my six-week live program, you will govern one realistic enterprise AI agent: assess risk, set boundaries, test controls, and design human oversight. You will leave with a reviewed portfolio of governance evidence you can build on at work. No coding required.

Start with a free lesson, join a live cohort, or bring me in to train your team.
