Delinea Enhances Machine and AI Security Capabilities on Cloud-Native Identity Platform
In a bid to strengthen its Machine and AI solution on its leading cloud-native identity security platform, Delinea is introducing robust new and planned capabilities. These enhancements will bolster network defenses through comprehensive, AI-driven security controls, making it easier for businesses to discover, manage, and secure AI agents, systems, and infrastructure.
The growing adoption of AI has led to increased risks and complexities in managing machine identities. Delinea Labs researchers have identified a concerning trend of machine identity sprawl, estimating that there are now 46 machine identities for every human identity within organizational networks. The new and upcoming Machine and AI solution capabilities on the Delinea Platform aim to address this challenge by providing built-in safeguards to protect AI and leverage AI for enhanced security measures, all while ensuring compliance and productivity.
Todd Thiemann, Principal Analyst at the Enterprise Strategy Group, emphasized the strategic importance of securing AI for enterprises. He noted that Delinea’s machine identity and AI capabilities offer a unique approach to addressing the risks posed by the proliferation of non-human identities. By leveraging AI to advance its own technologies and secure AI infrastructure, Delinea is paving the way for a more secure and efficient AI ecosystem.
The forthcoming enhancements to Delinea’s Machine and AI solutions will enable enterprises to manage and safeguard human and machine identities in complex cloud environments. Key features include:
- Vault AI: An enterprise-grade vault that provides visibility and control over AI access and usage, automating password rotation and credential management.
- Secure AI: Enforces least privilege to limit access to sensitive AI systems, reducing the impact of potential attacks.
- Discover AI: A system for assessing and scaling AI entitlements, helping IT managers detect unauthorized AI usage.
- AI-Driven Authorization: Utilizes a just-in-time access approach to apply least privilege across all identities quickly and accurately.
- Identity AI: A native large-language model for privileged accounts, reducing risks associated with third-party models.
Phil Calvin, Chief Product Officer at Delinea, highlighted the challenges posed by the rapid growth of machine identities in the era of Agentic AI. He emphasized the importance of responsibly using AI to drive business transformation while maintaining security standards. The Delinea Platform aims to streamline the management and authorization of human and machine identities, enabling businesses to innovate and achieve their goals securely.
