Members include Anaconda partners NVIDIA, Microsoft, and Amazon, alongside Cloudflare, Red Hat, and others. Anaconda will work on testing agent workflows for multi-step failures, securing agent connections to tools and MCP servers, and recording agent decisions for incident verification. Kilo lets builders pick from models including NVIDIA Nemotron, set tool permissions for agents, and use Anaconda's AI Artifacts for packages with provenance and vulnerability data. The Anaconda platform's security capabilities, powered by Enkrypt AI, help test how agents can be manipulated before release. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What is the Open Secure AI Alliance and who founded it? The Open Secure AI Alliance is a group founded by NVIDIA and led by the Linux Foundation that brings together technology companies, researchers, and government partners to develop and share open technologies for securing AI. Members include NVIDIA, Microsoft, Amazon, Cloudflare, Red Hat, and Anaconda, the company behind the Kilo coding agent tool. _Teams evaluating secure AI tooling standards can follow alliance developments like this on daily.dev._ ### How does Kilo let me control what my AI coding agent is allowed to do? Kilo provides tool permissions that let you allow actions, require approval, or block them entirely. This lets you automate routine work while keeping consequential commands and changes, including those made through MCP server connections, subject to manual review before execution. _Developers tightening agent permissions can track approaches like this on daily.dev._ ### Which AI models can I use with the Kilo coding agent? Kilo is open source and model agnostic, letting you use a frontier model for a difficult refactor, an efficient open model for routine work, or a local model when needed. NVIDIA Nemotron models are available as one option, giving builders tradeoffs in capability, performance, and cost across coding, reasoning, and multimodal tasks. _Developers comparing coding agent model options can follow choices like this on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Anaconda acquires Outerbounds to rein in the buggy code AI agents keep shipping](https://daily.dev/posts/anaconda-acquires-outerbounds-to-rein-in-the-buggy-code-ai-agents-keep-shipping-hzxp26se7) · The New Stack · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Kilo Is a Finalist in the 2026 SiliconANGLE TechForward Awards](https://daily.dev/posts/kilo-is-a-finalist-in-the-2026-siliconangle-techforward-awards-qohgipumg) · Kilo Blog · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [NVIDIA-Started Open Secure AI Alliance Moves To The Linux Foundation](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-started-open-secure-ai-alliance-moves-to-the-linux-foundation-kejmvkpjv) · Phoronix · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#ai-agents](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-agents), [#mcp](https://daily.dev/tags/mcp), [#ai-security](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-security), [#kilo-code](https://daily.dev/tags/kilo-code) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/anaconda-and-kilo-join-the-open-secure-ai-alliance-kznwyte4d) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Anaconda and Kilo Join the Open Secure AI Alliance","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/anaconda-and-kilo-join-the-open-secure-ai-alliance-kznwyte4d","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/anaconda-and-kilo-join-the-open-secure-ai-alliance-kznwyte4d"},"datePublished":"2026-10-28T22:35:23.422Z","dateModified":"2026-10-28T23:03:47.822Z","description":"Anaconda, the company behind Kilo, has joined the Open Secure AI Alliance, a group founded by NVIDIA and led by the Linux Foundation.
