REDWOOD SHORES, Calif.: Veza, the pioneer in identity security, today announced a landmark expansion of the Veza Platform with the introduction of Veza Access Agents – a set of purpose-built AI Agents designed to automate complex identity and access governance tasks for enterprises. Veza also announced advancements to its AI Agent Security product, providing organizations with deeper visibility, agent risks, and control over third-party AI agents, large language models (LLMs), AI apps, and AI infrastructure (MCP).
As enterprises rapidly adopt agentic AI to drive business efficiency, the volume and complexity of identity-based access have reached a tipping point. “Identity security for AI agents is one of the most urgent and unsolved challenges in cybersecurity today," says Phil Venables, cybersecurity leader, partner at Ballistic Ventures, and former CISO, Google Cloud. "As organizations move toward a future where AI agents may outnumber humans by 80 to 1 or more, the question of permissions and authorization becomes mission-critical. Without clear governance, visibility, and control, AI agents introduce a new layer of risk at machine scale. Veza Access Agents addresses this head-on, bringing the same rigor, policy intelligence, and authorization discipline we expect for human identities to the rapidly expanding ecosystem of AI agents.”
Introducing Veza Access Agents: Identity Automation at the Speed of Business
Veza Access Agents leverage the power of the Veza Access Graph to enable an interactive experience for IAM teams, Agentic AI programs, and identity security use cases. Built on AWS Bedrock for enterprise-grade compliance controls, Veza intelligently chooses the optimal model (Claude, Opus, Sonnet) for each task-whether you need quick responses or deeper reasoning-without compromising quality or correctness. The first set of Veza Access Agents, currently available as early access, include:
“Identity is a foundational element in security, especially in the era of autonomous AI. We are on the cusp of having trillions of AI agents. And we believe that identity Security for AI Agents is an unsolved problem,” said Tarun Thakur, Co-Founder and CEO of Veza. “Veza’s Access Graph harnesses the power of identity and permissions data across enterprise systems, to help organizations understand who and what can access what data. This enables enterprises to visualize, govern, and manage access across humans, non-human identities, and AI agents to data. With the introduction of Veza Access Agents, we are shifting the burden of access security and access governance tasks from a manual effort to intelligent, automated reasoning – this lays the foundation to enforce deterministic policies for agents at machine speed towards our vision of Veza as the Enterprise Agent Identity Control Plane.”
Advanced AI Agent Security: Solving Identity Access for AI Agents
Veza has deepened its capabilities for securing external AI agents and infrastructure, such as the OpenAI Agent Platform, Claude Code, and MCP servers. These improvements help organizations close the "identity blind spots" created by semi-autonomous AI entities. According to Gartner*, "Through 2028, over 50% of AI initiatives will halt, becoming unmanageable, because of unresolved agentic identity challenges."
Key enhancements to Veza AI Agent Security include:
Enterprise Readiness and Compliance
By leveraging AWS Bedrock, Veza ensures its AI capabilities meet the highest industry standards for security and privacy. The platform’s hybrid architecture works seamlessly across Veza SaaS deployment and Veza Secure SaaS deployment (dedicated tenant), allowing global enterprises to adopt AI with confidence while maintaining a continuous audit of all authorizations. To further provide transparency, Veza Access Agents document and share with administrators what tools and/or APIs were used to derive the provided information presented by the agent.
Availability
Veza Access Agents are available now as Early Access to select customers. General Availability is the end of Q2 2026.
