Access & Lifecycle Management for AI Agents
Enable AI adoption at scale across the organization, without compromising security with Astrix ACP – rapid deployment of AI agents and workloads with short-lived credentials, and least-privileged just-in-time access.
AI Agent risks are not theoretical
97%
of enterprises reported an AI-related security incident tied to improper AI access controls.
20%
of breaches involved “shadow AI” (unauthorized AI tools).
Five challenges Astrix solves
Audit failures
Many AI Agents operate without clear ownership, making it impossible to conduct access reviews or attest to their business purpose. This accountability gap leads to failed audits and leaves risky, over-privileged, or unused agents active in the environment indefinitely.
Shadow agents
Agents created without proper oversight often remain active even after employees’ offboarding, leaving behind hidden backdoors and blind spots.
Agent access creep
Employees often grant AI agents admin / broad permissions that are never reviewed or right-sized. This allows access privileges to expand over time, leaving sensitive data exposed.
Developer bottlenecks
Manual provisioning for agents creates bottlenecks and slow development. As a result, developers often resort to using over-privileged, long-lived credentials, bypassing security controls entirely.
No ownership. No accountability
Many agents operate without a designated owner, making it impossible to conduct access reviews or attest to their business purpose. This lack of accountability leads to audit failures and makes it difficult to decommission unused or risky agents.
Simplify audits
Gain a complete, continuously updated inventory of all AI agents, including shadow agents discovered outside of sanctioned processes. Assign clear ownership and maintain a detailed audit trail for every agent, streamlining access reviews and compliance checks.
Protect sensitive data
Enforce least-privilege access for every agent, ensuring it can only access what’s required for its function. By issuing short-lived credentials and precisely scoped permissions, you prevent misconfigured agents from exposing sensitive data.
Remove bottlenecks
Turn security into an enabler for innovation, not a blocker. Replace slow, manual provisioning with automated, policy-based workflows that empower developers to deploy agents quickly and responsibly from the start.
How it’s done
Comprehensive actionable visibility
AI agent discovery & inventory
Astrix automatically discovers and registers all AI agents deployed across your various platforms into a centralized inventory. This includes uncovering “shadow” agents created without oversight to eliminate blind spots.
Ownership & accountability
Every AI agent is correlated to a human owner, establishing clear accountability for its entire lifecycle. Astrix facilitates governance workflows like owner attestation and reviews to ensure agents remain justified and managed.
Secure onboarding with policy-driven access
Policy at creation
Security admins pre-define granular, least-privilege access policies for different use cases. Policies can be bound to specific environments using context like IP addresses, tags, and teams for Zero Trust enforcement from the start.
Just-in-Time credentials
Instead of relying on risky, long-lived credentials, managed agents receive short-lived, precisely scoped tokens that are provisioned only when needed and automatically expire. This minimizes the potential blast radius of a compromise.
Accelerated deployment
Developers can spin up agents quickly and securely using pre-approved access profiles via API or CLI, eliminating provisioning bottlenecks while maintaining full governance.
Automated remediation and secure offboarding
Streamlined offboarding
Safely deactivate and remove agents that are no longer needed or when their human owner leaves the organization. Astrix enables you to manage ownership transitions and revoke access to prevent orphaned agents from becoming persistent backdoors.
Instant revocation & remediation
When a risk is identified, security teams can instantly revoke agent access directly with Astrix platform. Astrix provides guided or automated remediation to contain threats and remediate redundant or over-privileged permissions.
Usage tracking
Monitor how frequently agents are being used to identify and highlight inactive or abandoned agents that may pose a risk.
