SailPoint Introduces: Agent Identity Security

Why This Matters

As AI agents become integral members of the workforce, organizations need a way to govern and secure them just like human identities.
Agent Identity Security helps enterprises:

• Discover, secure, and govern AI agents under one unified control plane
• Assign ownership and ensure accountability for every agent
• Prevent over-permissioning, misalignment, and regulatory exposure

What Has Changed

Agent Identity Security extends SailPoint’s Identity Security Cloud to include AI agents alongside human users.
Key capabilities include:

• AI Agent Aggregation & Identity Creation – Connect directly to AWS, Azure, and GCP to onboard AI agents with enriched identity context
• Ownership & Succession Planning – Assign human owners to agents and maintain continuous oversight
• Certification & Review – Recertify agent access regularly and revoke inappropriate permissions
• Tool Governance – Apply consistent policies to agent service accounts from creation through retirement
• Audit & Traceability – Maintain full audit trails and certification records for compliance and investigations

Available for: Business and Business+ customers as an add-on capability

SailPoint: MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server update

SailPoint has just introduced the MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server, and this could be a game changer for how we handle access requests. In short, the MCP Server acts as a standardised bridge between AI applications and SailPoint’s Identity Security Cloud (ISC). Instead of needing heavy custom integration or multiple request centers, it gives you a ready-made interface to connect AI tools directly into SailPoint. That means access requests can finally become as simple as asking an assistant in plain language, without dropping enterprise security standards.

SailPoint: A new capability in Identity Security Cloud

SailPoint has introduced a new capability in Identity Security Cloud: the option to automatically delete accounts when an identity is terminated

Why This Matters

• Many customers need more than just disabling accounts
• Until now, this required custom rules (BeforeProvisioning), which slowed projects and added overhead

What Has Changed

• Admins can now configure Lifecycle States to delete accounts (not just enable/disable)
• All deletes are audited, so you know who did what, when, and on which system
• For disconnected systems, SailPoint creates a manual task and sends a notification

Timelines

• Sandbox rollout: Sept 15, 2025
• Production rollout: Week of Sept 22, 2025

SailPoint Identity Security Cloud – New Updates

Key Highlights from this latest release:

• BeyondTrust Password Safe On-Premise Integration: Identity Security Cloud now supports the BeyondTrust Password Safe (On-Premise) credential provider for Secrets Management. This enables credential cycling directly from BeyondTrust, providing stronger security and streamlined password management

• Workflows – Execution Playback: 
  A new execution playback feature has been introduced for Workflows. Administrators can now “playback” workflow execution logs in the same format as Test Workflow, viewing input/output data step by step. Even if the workflow has been modified since execution, playback restores the original configuration for accurate review and troubleshooting
