Nudge Security Announces a Tool for Discovering Shadow AI Agents Beyond APIs
Nudge Security, an AI and SaaS security governance company, has extended its agent discovery capabilities to cover platforms that lack a robust public API for agent identity and inventory. This launch will enable Nudge Security users to discover shadow AI agents in the browser, including those built in Airbyte, Atlassian Rovo, ChatGPT Workspace Agents, Cursor Automations, HyperAgent Agents, OpenAI Workflows, Retool Agents, and Zapier Agents, with more planned. The capability is available in research preview and will complement the company’s existing API-based discovery capabilities.
Orchid Security Extends Its Identity Control Plane with New Capabilities
Orchid Security, an Identity-First Security Orchestration platform, has extended its Identity Control Plane with delegation-aware identity enrichment, chain-of-delegation audit, and a graph-native chatbot. These capabilities will support safer agentic AI adoption and are designed to track what AI agents can do, what they are doing, and whether their actions align with expected intent. Roy Katmor, CEO of Orchid Security, says, “By pairing every agent with its originating identity and enforcing dynamic guardrails in real-time, we’re enabling enterprises to scale AI safely, turning agents into trusted teammates rather than unmanaged dark matter.”
Ping Identity Debuts New Features Tailored for the “Agentic Enterprise”
Ping Identity, a company focused on securing digital identities for global enterprises, has introduced new capabilities for the “agentic enterprise,” expanding its platform to support programmable identity, AI agent governance, and privileged access for desktop agents. Together, these capabilities will help enterprises support their AI-driven operations and preserve governance and control across human, non-human, and AI-agent access, without creating a parallel identity stack. The additions will also make it easier for businesses to adopt AI agents more safely and efficiently while still maintaining the centralized identity governance, accountability, and control they need.
Prove Details Its Inaugural Executive Advisory Board
Prove, a digital identity company, has announced its inaugural Executive Advisory Board, which just completed its first convening in New York City. The Board brings together leaders from banking, payments, compliance, and AI markets to address the identity and verification challenges created by autonomous agents acting on behalf of people and businesses. It will also provide the company with a forum for shaping a framework that ties verified identity, intent, consent, and payment credentials together. The board will convene twice each year under Chatham House Rules, designed to enable the candid, cross-industry dialogue that rarely happens within a single organization.
TrustLogix Unveils the Latest Iteration of Its TrustAI Platform
TrustLogix, an AI-powered unified data access governance and security platform, has expanded its TrustAI platform with intent-based authorization for AI agents, a runtime kill switch, a Model Context Protocol (MCP) Data Gateway, the Guardian Agent, and support for SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, and the EU AI Act regulatory frameworks. The update will also help TrustLogix position TrustAI as a control plane for policy enforcement, auditing, and compliance across modern data stacks such as Snowflake, Databricks, AWS, and Azure.
Xage Security Expands Its Zero Trust for AI Platform
Xage Security, a global provider of Zero Trust access and protection, has expanded its Zero Trust for AI platform with several new capabilities. With these additions, Xage can provide customers with a “jailbreak-proof” security foundation for autonomous AI agents in closed-loop and high-stakes applications. The new AI security capabilities will also give users complete visibility into AI interactions and precise control over agent behavior across both distributed and hybrid environments, providing extensive protection against AI abuse across MCP- and API-accessible assets, SaaS applications, cloud services, and on-prem and edge systems.
XM Cyber Releases New Identity Exposure Management Capabilities
XM Cyber, a provider of Continuous Exposure Management solutions, has unveiled new platform enhancements to help organizations reduce identity risk, compounded by AI-enabled attackers. The new tools include Active Directory Excessive Permissions to track how frequently Active Directory entities use their permissions, and Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM) to help cloud security and DevSecOps teams make informed decisions when cleaning up overly permissive roles. By tying usage data to entitlements, XM Cyber is aiming to make identity cleanup more evidence-based and less disruptive.
