NEW YORK and TEL AVIV, Israel – October 29, 2025 – Akeyless, a recognized innovator in secrets management and machine identity security, today announced the unveiling of its groundbreaking AI Agent Identity Security solution. This new offering is specifically engineered to address the burgeoning security challenges posed by the rapid proliferation of autonomous AI systems across enterprises. The announcement comes as more than 95% of organizations indicate plans to integrate and utilize AI agents within the next 12 months, highlighting an urgent demand for specialized security measures.
Akeyless brings a proven track record to this new frontier, currently securing over 220 billion machine identity interactions and demonstrating an impressive 560% year-over-year average annual growth over the past four years. Building on this extensive expertise, the new solution empowers enterprises to effectively secure and manage the identities of their AI agents.
The Akeyless AI Agent Privileged Access Management (PAM) component introduces stringent Zero Trust and least-privilege controls to autonomous operations. This ensures continuous monitoring and governance of every action undertaken by AI agents, enabling organizations to proactively detect and shut down potential rogue agent misuse before it can cause harm. Complementing this, Akeyless also debuted AI Insights™, an intelligent assistant that streamlines identity security management through natural-language queries, instant reporting, and automated risk detection.

This ensures secure, ephemeral access for all interactions. The newly announced capabilities build upon this foundation, offering a comprehensive AI Agent Security framework.
The Akeyless Identity Security Platform integrates several critical functions under a unified infrastructure and centralized control plane. These include Secrets Management, Certificate Lifecycle Management & PKI, Workload Identity Federation, AI Agent Security, Multi-Vault Governance, and privileged access.
