AI Security focuses on controlling and securing how AI systems and agents access data, applications, APIs, and enterprise systems.

AI agents are autonomous or semi-autonomous systems that can perform actions, access systems, use APIs, and complete tasks on behalf of users or organizations.

Identity provides control, authentication, authorization, and accountability for AI systems and agents. Without identity-based security, AI systems can operate with excessive or unmanaged access.

AI agents typically access systems through APIs, integrations, applications, and delegated permissions connected to enterprise platforms and services.

AI agents can introduce risks such as unauthorized access, excessive privileges, uncontrolled delegation, limited visibility, and lack of accountability across systems and data.

Identity and Access Management (IAM) helps organizations manage authentication, authorization, governance, and lifecycle management for AI systems and agents.

Zero Trust Security ensures that AI systems and agents only receive the minimum access required, with continuous verification, strong authentication, and strict authorization controls.

Access for AI agents can be controlled through managed identities, role-based access, policy enforcement, authorization controls, and continuous monitoring.

Delegated access allows AI agents to perform actions on behalf of users or systems. This requires clear governance, limited permissions, and full traceability.

Organizations can govern AI activity through logging, monitoring, auditing, policy enforcement, identity governance, and access reviews.

Non-human identities include AI agents, applications, services, APIs, bots, and machine identities that require authentication, authorization, and governance.

Cloudworks helps organizations secure AI systems and agents through identity-driven access control, governance, Zero Trust Security, and integration with enterprise platforms and APIs.
