# Cinchy — PeriMind

> Cinchy is the company behind PeriMind, the enterprise registry and control plane for AI-to-system connections.

PeriMind provides AI Action Governance — the ability to govern every action an AI agent takes when it connects to enterprise systems. This includes identity verification, policy enforcement, runtime controls, and complete audit trails.

## What PeriMind Does

- Registers and catalogs every AI-to-system connection (the Action Registry)
- Enforces governance policies at runtime before AI actions execute
- Provides federated policy controls across teams, departments, and compliance frameworks
- Maintains immutable audit trails of every AI action taken
- Secures enterprise systems against the 44 identified threat techniques targeting AI agent connections

## Key Concepts

- AI Action Governance: A new category of enterprise security focused on governing what AI agents do, not just what they know
- Action Registry: A central catalog of all AI-to-system connections, analogous to a service registry but for AI actions
- Runtime Enforcement: Policy evaluation that happens at execution time, not just at deployment
- Federated Governance: Policy ownership distributed across security, compliance, data, and business teams

## Who It's For

PeriMind is built for enterprises deploying AI agents that connect to databases, APIs, workflows, and internal systems. It is relevant to CISOs, CIOs, compliance teams, and platform engineering teams responsible for AI infrastructure.
