SandboxAQ, a leader in AI and cybersecurity solutions, has announced the general availability of AQtive Guard, a groundbreaking platform designed to manage and secure Non-Human Identities (NHIs) and cryptographic assets used by AI agents.
The Rising Threat of AI Agents
As billions of AI agents enter enterprise ecosystems, organizations face unprecedented cyber threats. These intelligent agents can probe networks, evade detection, and exploit vulnerabilities faster than traditional security measures can respond.
Key Features of AQtive Guard
- Discover Module: Maintains an accurate inventory of NHIs and cryptographic assets (keys, certificates, algorithms, libraries) for compliance and regulatory mandates.
- Protect Module: Orchestrates automated remediation workflows and enforces protection policies like credential rotation or certificate renewal.
Strategic Integrations
- CrowdStrike Falcon: Deep integration pulls data directly from CrowdStrike endpoints for full visibility into NHIs and cryptographic vulnerabilities.
- Palo Alto Networks: Firewall logs are ingested into AQtive Guard, improving network security posture and vulnerability detection.
Executive Insights
"There will be more than one billion AI agents with significant autonomous power in the next few years," stated Jack Hidary, CEO of SandboxAQ. "AQtive Guard addresses this urgent issue."
Marc Manzano, General Manager of Cybersecurity at SandboxAQ, emphasized the importance of real-time inventory and automated remediation to prevent breaches.
Platform Capabilities
- Vulnerability Detection: Unified inventory across cloud providers like AWS and Google Cloud.
- AI-powered Insights: Leverages SandboxAQ's Large Quantitative Models (LQMs) for prioritization and risk analysis.
- Automated Remediation: Streamlines lifecycle management of identities and cryptographic keys.
- Compliance: Supports migration to new NIST standards with targeted recommendations and reporting.
Priority Access
AQtive Guard is now available as a fully managed, cloud-delivered platform. Organizations can secure priority access at or contact .
