Introducing Zuma: The Enterprise AI Identity Security Platform

Every enterprise is becoming an AI enterprise. AI agents are analyzing data, making decisions, interacting with customers, and taking actions across critical systems. As organizations race to deploy AI, a new workforce is emerging, one made up of AI agents, applications, service accounts, and other non-human identities operating at machine speed.

Yet most organizations cannot answer some basic questions:

  • How many AI agents are active in our environment?
  • What data and systems can they access?
  • Who is accountable for them?
  • How do we stop risky or unintended actions before they happen?

The reality is that AI identities are growing faster than identity security teams can secure and govern them. Non-human identities already outnumber human identities by a wide margin, creating an unprecedented visibility, governance, and access control challenge.

Today, we're thrilled to announce Zuma, the industry's first comprehensive enterprise AI Identity Security Platform designed to help organizations securely adopt AI with confidence.

Zuma gives enterprises a unified foundation to discover, protect, and manage AI agents and non-human identities across their environment, eliminating AI blind spots while enabling innovation at scale.

Securing the AI Workforce

Traditional identity security was built for humans and all static identities. AI agents operate differently.

They are autonomous, dynamic, and capable of taking actions across multiple systems in real time. They create new access paths, introduce new risks, and often exist outside established governance processes. Securing AI requires more than visibility. Organizations need continuous discovery, real-time authorization, and lifecycle governance specifically designed for the AI era.

That's exactly what Zuma delivers.

Three Pillars of Zuma

Discover Everything with Zuma Insights

You can't secure what you can't see.

Zuma Insights provides a continuously updated inventory of AI agents and non-human identities across the enterprise. Identity Security teams gain visibility into where agents exist, what systems they connect to, what permissions they hold, and where risk is accumulating.

By mapping relationships between AI agents, applications, resources, and human owners, Zuma transforms fragmented information into a single source of truth for AI identity security.

 

 

Protect Every Action with Zuma Access

Visibility alone doesn't stop risk.

AI agents can execute actions at a scale and speed that make traditional access controls insufficient. Zuma Access introduces a new approach to runtime authorization through Intent-Aware Runtime Authorization (IARA). Every agent action is evaluated at runtime using identity, context, risk, policy, and intended purpose. Instead of granting broad standing permissions, Zuma Access continuously determines whether a specific action should be allowed before it occurs. This allows organizations to enforce least privilege access for AI systems, prevent over-privileged behavior, and stop deviated or unauthorized actions before they become incidents.

 

 

Manage and govern AI Agents at Enterprise Scale with Zuma Governance

Every AI identity should have accountability. Zuma Governance establishes ownership, purpose, access reviews, lifecycle controls, and auditability for every AI agent and non-human identity. Organizations can ensure that every agent has a responsible owner, every privilege is continuously reviewed, and every action is captured in an auditable record. The result is governance that scales alongside AI adoption without creating operational friction.

 

 

What Makes Zuma Different

Comprehensive AI Discovery

Zuma identifies AI agents and non-human identities across enterprise environments and consolidates them into a unified registry complete with ownership, access, risk, and lifecycle information.

Shadow AI Visibility and Response

Organizations can discover unsanctioned AI agents using native discovery capabilities enriched through strategic security ecosystem integrations.

When unauthorized or risky agents are detected, built-in remediation workflows enable rapid containment, including disabling access and stopping activity immediately.

Secure Agent Development from Day One

Zuma helps development and security teams establish governance at creation time by assigning ownership, documenting purpose, enforcing policy, and maintaining complete provenance throughout the agent lifecycle.

Intent-Aware Runtime Authorization

Unlike traditional access controls that authorize access once and trust behavior afterward, Zuma continuously evaluates actions in real time to ensure agents operate within approved boundaries.

Continuous Compliance and Audit Readiness

Comprehensive audit trails, access histories, and lifecycle records provide the evidence organizations need to demonstrate compliance and maintain accountability across their AI ecosystem.

Built for the agentic era, not retrofitted for it

Zuma's architecture is purpose-built for AI and non-human identities, not adapted from legacy human identity tools. Under the hood, it's engineered for the scale, speed, and unpredictability of machine-driven access, with auto-scaling, stateless infrastructure tested across millions of service accounts, and support for more than 5,000 agent API calls per second.

Zuma provides visibility and security across the AI ecosystems enterprises already use, including AWS Bedrock and AgentCore, Microsoft Azure Foundry and Copilot Studio, Gemini Enterprise Agent, Salesforce Agentforce, ServiceNow Now Assist, Snowflake Cortex, and n8n.

And because AI identities don't operate in isolation, Zuma is built on the same Saviynt Identity Security Data Fabric. This enables organizations to extend a single identity security foundation across human, non-human, and AI identities, without creating a separate security or governance silo for AI.

From AI Sprawl to AI Confidence

AI is changing the identity landscape forever. Organizations are no longer securing only employees and contractors. They are now responsible for a rapidly expanding workforce of AI agents and non-human identities capable of accessing systems, making decisions, and acting autonomously. To innovate safely, organizations need a new approach to identity security.

Zuma provides the visibility, runtime protection, and governance required to secure the AI workforce at enterprise scale. Because the future of identity security isn't just human.

It's human, machine, and AI. And with Zuma, organizations can embrace that future with confidence.

You can start with a free trial and see their AI and NHI risk exposure, then extend into full Zuma Access and Governance capabilities as their AI footprint matures.
