Securing AI Agent Identities in Regulated Industries
RSA unveils a specialized agentic identity security platform designed to discover, secure, and govern artificial intelligence agents.
AI Identity Security | RSA Agent ID
The Rise of Agentic AI
• Enterprise AI agents increasingly execute complex workflows across databases, APIs, and microservices.
• Unmonitored agent access can create attack vectors, data-exfiltration paths, and compliance risks.
• Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations are accelerating the need for stronger non-human identity 
controls.

Why Non-Human Identities Need Security
• Traditional identity governance focuses on employees, contractors, and static machine credentials.
• Autonomous AI agents can make multi-step decisions and invoke software tools without continuous 
human intervention.
• A rogue or misconfigured agent could access sensitive health records, execute unauthorized 
transactions, or expose confidential government data.

RSA Agent ID: Three Core Capabilities
• DISCOVER — Detect sanctioned and shadow AI agents and MCP servers across cloud and on-premises 
environments.
• SECURE — Authenticate, authorize, and inspect agent calls in real time through an inline AI/MCP 
gateway.
• GOVERN — Automate access certification, enforce least privilege, and map telemetry to international 
regulatory frameworks.

RSA Agent ID Discover
• Continuously scans public cloud, private cloud, and on-premises environments.
• Identifies both approved and shadow AI agents and MCP servers.
• Registers discovered assets and attributes them to responsible human owners.
• Provides real-time risk analytics for agentic environments.

RSA Agent ID Secure
• Acts as an inline AI/MCP gateway.
• Authenticates, authorizes, and inspects every agent call in real time.
• Enforces per-call entitlement policies.
• Requires out-of-band human approval for high-risk actions.

RSA Agent ID Govern
• Automates continuous access certification.
• Enforces least-privilege entitlements.
• Maps operational telemetry to ten international regulatory compliance frameworks.
• Supports accountable, auditable governance across the AI agent lifecycle.

Human-in-the-Loop Governance
• Sensitive actions can be intercepted before execution.
• Examples include wire transfers, access to protected health information (PHI), and system configuration 
changes.
• Designated human operators provide explicit, attributable approval for high-impact actions.
• This keeps autonomous AI within defined operational boundaries.

Lifecycle & Session Protection
• AI agents receive controlled access based on defined entitlements.
• High-risk operations can require out-of-band authorization.
• After an agent completes its workflow, the active session token is immediately invalidated.
• This reduces the risk of persistent credential misuse and lateral movement.

Why It Matters for Regulated Organizations
• Government agencies — protect sensitive government data and maintain auditability.
• Financial institutions — control high-impact actions such as transactions and access to financial 
systems.
• Critical infrastructure providers — strengthen visibility and governance for autonomous workloads.
• Across regulated sectors, the goal is accountable AI access with continuous visibility and policy 
enforcement.

Key Takeaways
• AI agents are becoming non-human identities that require dedicated security controls.
• RSA Agent ID combines discovery, real-time enforcement, and governance.
• Human accountability is built into high-risk AI operations.
• Continuous authentication, least privilege, and auditability help reduce agentic AI risk.
