Astrix Launches AI Agent Control Plane to Secure Enterprise AI Deployments
80% of companies face AI agent risks; Astrix's new AI Agent Control Plane secures non-human identities, reducing compliance and data breach risks.
September 16, 2025 — As AI agents become integral to enterprise workflows, their autonomy and decision-making capabilities introduce significant security risks. A recent study reveals that 80% of companies have experienced unintended AI agent actions, including unauthorized system access and data leaks. Traditional identity and access management (IAM) systems are ill-equipped to handle these challenges, prompting the need for a new solution.
Astrix's AI Agent Control Plane (ACP)
Astrix has launched the AI Agent Control Plane (ACP), the industry's first solution designed to secure AI agents with short-lived, least-privilege credentials. ACP addresses three critical needs:
- Fast and predictable audits – Clear ownership and tracked activity trails ensure every agent action is governed and auditable.
- Secure access for AI agents – Just-in-time credentials minimize risk by enforcing least-privilege access.
- Developer productivity – Pre-approved access policies streamline agent deployment, reducing delays.
How ACP Works
- Pre-define policies: Security teams create granular permission profiles for specific AI agent use cases.
- Deploy agents: Developers launch AI agents with pre-approved permissions.
- Centralize control: Astrix provides real-time monitoring and management of all agents.
