Zenity has announced the general availability of runtime security controls for AI agents developed on Microsoft Foundry, strengthening its expanded partnership with Microsoft. Building on inline prevention capabilities introduced earlier, this integration enables enterprises to deploy and scale autonomous agents securely by enforcing real-time protection directly in the execution path.
As enterprises accelerate from AI experimentation to production, risks have shifted from model development to real-time agent execution. Autonomous agents now make decisions, chain actions, and invoke tools across sensitive enterprise resources, introducing dynamic threats that traditional prompt guards or after-the-fact monitoring cannot adequately address.
Zenity’s runtime security embeds directly into the Microsoft Foundry agent lifecycle, providing continuous, inline safeguards that understand agentic intent and behavior. This approach blocks misuse in real time—preventing data exfiltration, credential compromise, jailbreaks, and unauthorized tool actions—while preserving business velocity.
“With agents, risks emerge and persist at runtime,” said Michael Bargury, CTO and co-founder of Zenity. “This expanded partnership with Microsoft allows customers to build and run AI agents in production with confidence, with capabilities that block agent misuse in real-time, before data moves or tools execute.”
“Inline security only works if it’s part of the execution path,” Bargury added. “Zenity integrates where agents actually operate, ensuring that autonomy doesn’t come at the cost of security or compliance.”
Organizations building agents on Microsoft Foundry can access Zenity’s runtime security capabilities through the Azure Marketplace listing.
