§ 01
OpenClaw gives you an autonomous AI assistant that writes code, manages files, and calls APIs. The catch: it can access anything you can. No guardrails. No boundaries. For companies, that is a dealbreaker.
§ 02
NVIDIA built NemoClaw - a security wrapper that puts OpenClaw in a controlled environment with strict rules.
§ 03
Near-zero by default. Every new site blocked until a human approves.
Intercepted and routed through a gateway. You pick the model.
Sandbox directory only. Everything else off-limits.
Privilege escalation blocked at kernel level.
