Deepens Value for Joint Customers
BETHESDA, MD, UNITED STATES, September 8, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — AuthMind, the leader in identity observability-driven agentic AI, NHI and user threat protection, today announced new capabilities within its Identity Observability & Protection Platform that extend governance, risk detection and real-time remediation to agentic AI and non-human identities (NHIs) operating alongside IBM Vault.
Agentic AI is multiplying the number of non-human identities, and the secrets they rely on, creating security challenges that no single system was designed to address alone. AuthMind’s new capabilities observe the identity and agent behind every access, action, and event across the full secret lifecycle, from the moment an identity reaches Vault through the subsequent use of the secret.
The enhanced platform delivers six coordinated layers of protection:
— Discovery of unknown and shadow AI agents
— Detection of Vault authentication bypass and attack activity
— Governance of Vault access rights and secret issuance
— Assurance that agent and NHI access and secret usage match intent
— Detection of misuse and lifecycle violations after a secret leaves the Vault, including secrets that are rotated but never adopted or that remain in use after expiration
— Automated remediation that routes confirmed findings back into Vault, third-party systems, and security operations in real time
“Whether an agent actually behaves as intended is a challenge that security teams are increasingly grappling with as agentic AI scales,” said Shlomi Yanai, CEO of AuthMind. “AuthMind built these capabilities so that every secret an agent touches can be continuously verified from the moment it’s issued to the moment it’s used, providing organizations with assurance that access is not only governed by policy, but aligned with intended behavior.”
This news deepens AuthMind’s existing relationship with IBM, and reflects a shared focus on helping joint customers address emerging agentic AI runtime security challenges. Vault customers benefit from these expanded capabilities by granting direct access to real-time visibility, secrets governance and automated remediation. The two companies plan to continue building on this collaboration as demand for agentic AI runtime security grows.
“Vault helps secure secrets and manages the lifecycle,” said Drew Roy, Program Director, Product Management, IBM Vault. “Extending that with real-time visibility into how agents and identities use those secrets is the layered approach that organizations need as agentic AI adoption grows. We’re glad to see collaborators like AuthMind building on top of Vault to help our joint customers close that gap.”
These latest capabilities are available now to AuthMind customers running Vault. To learn more about the AuthMind Identity Observability & Protection Platform, visit https://www.authmind.com/authmind-platform.
