Identity security has evolved far beyond managing human workforce access. In a recent AWS Security LIVE! interview at AWS Partner Summit NYC, Saviynt's Chief Product Officer Vibhuti Sinha explored how organizations now face the complex challenge of governing human identities alongside machine identities and AI agents—all within a unified security framework. This conversation coincides with Saviynt's exciting announcement of being selected by AWS as a launch partner for the AI Agent and Tools Marketplace, where we introduced Saviynt MCP Server. From our groundbreaking journey as a cloud-native identity governance pioneer to our latest AI-powered innovations and this milestone AWS collaboration, we continue to demonstrate how modern identity security is becoming a critical business enabler rather than just a compliance requirement.
Here's a recap of the AWS Live! interview:
Saviynt’s Journey on the Frontlines of Identity Security
In the interview, Vibhuti kicked off the conversation by reflecting on Saviynt's journey at the forefront of identity security. From the early days of building an identity governance platform in the cloud to pioneering the converged AI-centric platform that now unifies ISPM with identity governance, privileged access management, non-human identities, and application GRC, Saviynt has disrupted the industry every step of the way:
- Bringing identity governance as a service on AWS, a groundbreaking shift at the time.
- The integration of workforce and external identity governance, privilege management, and appGRC into a single platform.
The introduction of AI-driven identity security features powered by generative AI, transforming the way organizations manage and secure identities in the face of evolving risks.
The Convergence of Human, Machine, and AI Identities
Vibhuti and the AWS Security LIVE! hosts discussed the growing complexity of identity management. Organizations now have much more than human identities to contend with as machine and AI agent identities are rapidly gaining prominence.
- Human Identities: Primarily workforce and external identities.
- Machine Identities: API keys, tokens, and other non-human entities.
- AI Agent Identities: These include AI-driven agents, which require new methods for secure access, monitoring, and certification.
These new forms of identities present unique challenges in governance, as they require special attention to ensure that AI agents have least privileged access and are continuously audited for compliance.
The key takeaway? Identity governance cannot be siloed. It must be unified, ensuring that human, machine, and AI identities are governed with the same rigor and integrated seamlessly into the security framework.
Leveraging Generative AI in Identity Security for Business Growth
Vibhuti talked about how leveraging generative AI in identity security can be a transformative business enabler, guiding organizations through complex identity ecosystems and automating the enforcement of critical policies and seamless compliance.
Check out Saviynt’s recent releases that exemplify this vision:
- Saviynt’s next-gen ISPM ushers in a new era of proactive identity security, leveraging AI and automation to continuously assess and reduce potential exposure, ensuring real-time protection for dynamic business environments.
- Saviynt’s Just-in-Time Access AI-powered capabilities empower businesses by providing secure, on-demand access to critical resources, enhancing operational efficiency while enhancing security.
- Saviynt’s MCP Server, helping launch the AWS AI Agent and Tools Marketplace, offers natural language processing to enable a more intuitive, human-centered experience, allowing organizations to easily interact with and manage their identity security data.
Looking ahead, Vibhuti teased more exciting developments on Saviynt’s roadmap, including new AI-powered features aimed at helping organizations track and govern the rising number of AI agents within their infrastructure. These features are designed to simplify the governance of complex AI workflows, ensuring that organizations can manage their identity ecosystems with the same rigor as they do their traditional identity models.
About our AWS Partnership
Saviynt was selected as a launch partner for AWS’s new AI Agent and Tools Marketplace, where we introduced the Saviynt MCP Server. The AI Agent and Tools Marketplace is a new initiative by AWS to help customers discover, purchase, and deploy pre-built AI agents and agent tools from trusted partners.
The partnership enables Saviynt to integrate AWS’s powerful cloud-native services, including Amazon Bedrock and AWS IAM Access Analyzer, into our generative AI-powered identity governance platform, Saviynt Identity Cloud. This strategic move brings a new dimension to Saviynt’s platform, empowering organizations to govern human, machine identities, and AI agents—all in a unified, secure environment.
