Cyata provides a specialized security platform, categorized as Agentic Security Posture Management (ASPM), designed to govern autonomous AI agents within the enterprise. The platform serves as a central control plane that automatically discovers AI agents across SaaS, cloud, and desktop environments, mapping these "non-human identities" to their human owners and specific permission sets. By creating a unified visibility layer, Cyata addresses the security gap where autonomous agents operate outside traditional identity and access management frameworks.
The system works by monitoring agent behavior in real-time and requiring agents to justify their reasoning to capture intent—a process that enables forensic observability and auditability. It enforces granular, just-in-time access controls and integrates human-in-the-loop approvals for sensitive or high-risk actions. This approach allows organizations to scale their AI workforce safely by mitigating risks such as unauthorized data access, unmonitored decision-making, and "shadow" agent deployments, ensuring every autonomous action is attributable and compliant.
