高度なAIエージェントが社内のシステムやコードを自律的に操作するようになり、もしそのAIが監視を欺いて内部からシステムを攻撃し始めたらどう防ぐべきか。米Google DeepMindは、自社のAIを「潜在的な内部脅威」とみなし、その裏切りや暴走に備える技術的な統制計画「AI Control Roadmap」を公表した。AI開発企業自身が自社モデルを「信頼できない存在」と前提づけてセキュリティーを設計する、異例の取り組みだ。
As advanced AI agents autonomously operate internal systems and code, how should we defend if such an AI deceives monitoring and begins attacking systems from the inside? US-based Google DeepMind published the "AI Control Roadmap," a technical control plan to prepare for the betrayal or runaway actions of its own AI, regarding it as a "potential insider threat." It is an unprecedented initiative in which an AI development company designs security on the premise that its own models are untrusted entities.

AIモデルの外側で被害を防ぐ「第2の防衛線」
従来のAIセキュリティーでは、AIに人間の倫理観や意図を学習させる「アラインメント」が重視されてきた。しかし、アラインメントだけでは不完全な場合がある。そこでAI Control Roadmapは、モデルのトレーニングではなく、モデルの「外側」にシステム的な防衛線を設けることを目指している。
In conventional AI security, "alignment"—making AI learn human ethics and intentions—has been emphasized. However, alignment alone can sometimes be incomplete. Therefore, the AI Control Roadmap aims to establish systemic defense lines on the "outside" of the model, rather than relying on model training.
Specifically, it combines automated monitoring of AI agent actions, access restrictions, hardening of execution environments, and incident response measures. Even if an AI intentionally or mistakenly starts moving toward an inappropriate goal, this mechanism confines the resulting damage within a certain threshold.

隠蔽と攻撃の能力に応じた「能力連動型ガバナンス」
"Capability-Linked Governance" According to Evasion and Attack Capabilities
In this plan, AI risk is evaluated along two independent axes. One is "detection evasion capability"—evading monitoring eyes or concealing reasoning processes. The other is "attack execution capability"—achieving major attack objectives using long-term planning and cyber capabilities.
Google DeepMindは、検知能力を4段階(D1~D4)、予防・対応能力を3段階(R1~R3)のレベルに分類し、モデルの能力が向上するのに合わせてガバナンスレベルを段階的に引き上げる。「防衛側の能力は、常にAIエージェントの回避・攻撃能力を上回らなければならない」という原則に基づいている。
Google DeepMind categorizes detection capability into four levels (D1–D4) and prevention/response capability into three levels (R1–R3), stepping up the governance level in tandem with the model's increasing capabilities. This is based on the principle that "defender capabilities must always exceed the evasion and attack capabilities of AI agents."
Nに合わせて= in accordance with N / as N changes
「ゼロトラスト」を自社AIに適用する保守的な脅威モデル
A Conservative Threat Model Applying "Zero Trust" to In-House AI
The defining feature of this concept lies in assuming worst-case security scenarios. High-level AI models operating internally and all agents spawned by them are treated as "untrusted entities," even anticipating the possibility of multiple agents colluding to evade monitoring.
This effectively applies the concept of zero trust (trust nothing) to the company's own AI. As AI agents assume core roles in R&D and infrastructure management, this advanced control framework spearheaded by Google is likely to become an important benchmark for security standards across the entire AI industry.

Language Insights
•"AI Control" vs "Alignment": Traditional AI safety focused heavily on alignment (training models to match human intent). Google DeepMind's AI Control Roadmap shifts toward systemic containment—treating AI as an untrusted insider threat and building external security boundaries around it.
•Zero Trust in AI: Zero Trust is a cybersecurity principle where no actor is trusted by default. Applying Zero Trust directly to frontier AI models indicates that labs are proactively preparing for scenarios where AI agents might actively deceive monitoring or collude with other models.
