# Agent Overview

> How the FailZero agent works

# Agent Overview

The FailZero agent runs in your infrastructure and executes DR operations using your local IAM credentials.

## How It Works

* Runs in your VPC
* Uses your IAM roles (no credential sharing)
* Polls FailZero API for commands
* Executes failovers locally
