SailPoint's Agent Identity Security enables organizations to discover, onboard, and govern AI agents within its unified control plane to address the rapid expansion of non-human identities 0:21.
Key Takeaways:
• The explosion of non-human identities—driven by volume, variety, and velocity—demands AI and automation to effectively govern and secure machine and agent identities 1:00.
• Unlike traditional machine accounts, AI agents are autonomous, proactive decision-makers capable of making over a million decisions per hour and storing learned information in memory for future use or agent-to-agent collaboration 5:08.
• SailPoint offers out-of-the-box connectors for platforms like AWS Bedrock, Microsoft Copilot Studio, Google Vertex AI, and Salesforce, plus a generic Web Services SaaS connector for REST/SOAP/GraphQL APIs to aggregate agents 7:41.
• Once onboarded, agents require human ownership (succession planning), tool governance mapping (MCP servers, skills), and integration into the identity graph for granular visibility and certification campaigns 3:44.
• Shadow AI Remediation (SIR) provides real-time visibility into unauthorized AI tool usage across browsers, IDPs, and plugins, allowing admins to enforce policies like blurring screens, blocking file uploads, or redirecting users to approved tools 20:40.
Securing AI agents starts with visibility; once discovered and onboarded, organizations can actively govern their access, monitor their behavior, and mitigate shadow AI risks 27:58.

[music] >> Hello everyone. Welcome and thank you for joining developer days 2026. I'm Dinesh, senior product manager at SailPoint. Today I'm going to talk about onboarding agents and application using SailPoint connectors. In the agenda, I'm going to go over why this matters, agent AI fundamentals, onboarding AI agents, shadow AI remediation, and there are some key takeaways and next actions. So why this matters? SailPoint's machine identity security and agent identity security are really important today given the recent shift in the landscape of identities, which create a need to transform the way we govern and secure non-human identities. There are three different aspects based on this rapid expansion in number of identities. The first one is the volume, which include the exposure in thr…
