What agents can do

Set what each agent can do in every folder.

Each folder gets one of three levels: Off, Read, or Full use. Anything not allowed is denied.

Off
No access
The agent can’t open the folder or see that it exists.
Read
Read-only
The agent can read and search the files in that folder. It can’t change anything.
Full use
Create and organise
The agent can create, upload, and organise files in that folder.

Some actions stay off until explicitly turned on

Each one can expose files to outsiders, delete data for good, or reach the whole Drive, so it could override the limits set on individual folders.

Set up & manage

Connect once. Manage everyone from there.

Connect once, then control access person by person. No new keys to hand out.

Step 1 · Set up

Connect once, company-wide

An admin connects your company’s Google Drive a single time and chooses how much it covers, from a single folder to every shared drive. Anything left out stays out of reach for every agent.

Step 2 · Manage

Control access per person and agent

From one dashboard, set what every person and their agents can reach. Change it any time, with no new keys for anyone.

OffNo access
ReadRead-only
Full useRead, create, upload, and organise files in a single folder
Example

A document filing agent.

A filing agent organises files in the Marketing folder and can read Finance, but it can’t open the HR folder or change who files are shared with.

Monitor activity

The security model

Top-tier security.

Bollard AI is access control for AI agents. It sits between your agents and Google Drive, so they never hold your Drive keys and never reach Drive directly.

Everything runs through Bollard AI

Agents send their requests to Bollard AI, not to Google Drive. Bollard AI checks each one against your rules and passes only the allowed requests through.

Denied by default

Every folder starts off-limits, and changing how files are shared is held back on top of that. An agent gets in only where you’ve allowed it, and anything Bollard AI doesn’t recognise is refused and held for review, never waved through on a guess.

Your keys stay sealed

Your Google Drive keys are sealed in a vault unique to your company and never shown again. Bollard AI unlocks them only for the instant an allowed request needs it.

Activity you can read

Every attempt is recorded in plain English: who or which agent, what they tried, which file or folder, and the decision. The record is readable and can’t be edited after the fact.

Questions

Google Drive, answered.

Does connecting Google Drive hand Bollard AI your whole Drive?+
Only what’s connected. At setup an admin chooses how much Bollard AI covers, from a single folder to every shared drive, and that sets the most any agent could reach. Bollard AI doesn’t browse or copy your files. It sits in front of them and checks every request the agents make, passing or blocking each one.
Can an agent share our files with outside people?+
Not unless you turn it on. Changing who a file is shared with is held off by default, so an agent can tidy and create files without ever exposing them to someone new, until you explicitly allow it.
Can an agent see more than the person who owns it?+
No. An agent reaches only what its owner reaches. An explicit Off always overrides an inherited permission.
Where do our Google Drive keys live?+
Sealed in an encrypted vault, behind a key unique to your company. It’s never shown again once connected, and Bollard AI unseals it only for the instant an allowed request needs it.
What happens when an agent tries something it’s not allowed to do?+
Bollard AI blocks the request before it reaches Google Drive, and the blocked attempt lands in the activity record with the reason.
How do we connect Google Drive?+
An admin connects the company’s Google Drive once. Bollard AI seals the connection and builds the list of folders to set rules for. From then on, all management happens in the Bollard AI dashboard.
