An orchestration interface is the control layer that coordinates automated workers, assigns tasks, tracks results, and manages decisions. In an agentic security tool, it may determine which worker acts next, what information it receives, and whether a task can continue.
This interface matters because it can enforce—or undermine—security boundaries. If exposed or poorly protected, an attacker may manipulate tasks, access credentials or logs, or direct workers beyond approved targets. Defenses include strong authentication, least-privilege access, enforced target scope, rate limits, and audit logs that record actions and decisions. In authorized testing, these controls help keep automation accountable and within permission.
