IAM + Cybersecurity + AI

Machine & AI-Agent Identity

Service accounts, API keys, and now AI agents already outnumber human identities in most environments — and most identity programs still aren't built to discover, own, or govern them.

Why this matters now

As organizations adopt agentic AI, every new agent is a new non-human identity with its own permissions and blast radius. Getting governance right before scale is far cheaper than retrofitting controls onto dozens of agents already in production.

How we help

  • Non-human identity discovery, inventory, and ownership assignment
  • Scoped, short-lived credentials and automated secrets rotation for machine identities
  • Identity and access governance extended to AI agents, not just service accounts
  • AI-specific guardrails — human-in-the-loop approval, action logging, and prompt-injection defense

FAQ

Is this only relevant if we're already deploying AI agents?

No — non-human identity governance (service accounts, API keys, certificates) is valuable on its own, and becomes more urgent as AI agent adoption grows.

How do you avoid this becoming a purely theoretical governance exercise?

We start from discovery and inventory of what actually exists in your environment today, not a policy document written in the abstract.
