Token Security, the leader in identity-first AI security, reported strong market momentum and triple-digit growth throughout 2025. This surge was fueled by accelerating enterprise adoption of agentic AI, cloud automation, and autonomous workloads, which has dramatically increased the volume and risk of non-human identities (NHIs) and AI agents—now outnumbering human identities by significant margins and emerging as one of the largest, least-governed attack surfaces in modern enterprises.
“2025 was the year non-human identity risk stopped being theoretical, with AI agents, service accounts, and machine credentials outnumbering human users by orders of magnitude,” said Itamar Apelblat, CEO and Co-Founder of Token Security. “At the same time, enterprises recognized that identity programs designed for people simply can’t govern identities that act autonomously and at machine speed.”
Traditional identity and access management (IAM) approaches fall short when applied to machine identities that operate at scale, make decisions, chain workflows, and interact with APIs without human intervention. Token Security’s machine-first and AI-native architecture treats identity as a runtime control plane, enabling continuous visibility, least-privilege enforcement, and lifecycle governance tailored to the speed and autonomy of AI agents.
“Traditional IAM fails because it treats machines like people. We built Token machine-first and AI-native to secure the speed and scale of today’s autonomous agents,” said Ido Shlomo, CTO and Co-Founder of Token Security. “AI agents don’t just authenticate, they take action, call APIs, chain workflows, and make decisions. Securing them requires treating identity as a runtime control plane, not a one-time configuration. That’s the architectural shift we are addressing.”
Token Security delivered market-first capabilities in 2025, including:
The company also earned recognition as one of The Information’s “50 Most Promising Startups of 2025,” highlighting its leadership in securing the fast-emerging category of agentic AI and non-human identities.
As agentic AI adoption continues to surge and regulatory scrutiny intensifies around AI governance and compliance, Token Security enters 2026 at the forefront of this critical security discipline. The company’s solutions help enterprises achieve secure, controlled AI operationalization by eliminating blind spots, enforcing least privilege, and maintaining governance over identities that power modern business workflows.
