Omada A/S, a global leader in AI-powered Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), has announced the launch of Omada Agent Governance, a new solution designed to extend governance and security controls to AI agents and non-human identities. The launch addresses a growing enterprise challenge as organizations increasingly deploy autonomous AI systems that operate with access to critical data and business workflows.

AI agents are emerging as a new class of digital actor inside enterprises, capable of connecting to systems, accessing data, executing tasks, and making decisions with varying levels of autonomy. However, most organizations currently lack visibility into how many AI agents exist within their environments, who is responsible for them, and whether their access is appropriately controlled.

  • Omada launches Agent Governance for AI agents and non-human identities
  • Expands Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) to cover AI-driven systems
  • Addresses lack of visibility and accountability for autonomous AI agents
  • Aims to reduce risk from over-privileged or unmanaged AI identities
  • Supports compliance with frameworks like EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001
  • Enhances audit readiness and enterprise security governance

Growing Governance Gap in AI Adoption

As enterprises accelerate AI adoption, governance gaps are becoming more pronounced. Traditional identity and security systems were designed primarily for human users, leaving organizations underprepared to manage the rapid expansion of autonomous AI agents.

These AI systems can now independently interact with enterprise infrastructure, yet many organizations cannot clearly identify what agents exist, what they can access, or what risks they introduce. This lack of visibility creates potential security, compliance, and operational challenges.

Omada’s Approach to AI Agent Governance

Omada Agent Governance extends the company’s identity governance framework to include AI agents and non-human digital identities. The solution is designed to provide organizations with unified visibility and control across all identity types within their environment.

Jakob H. Kraglund, CEO, Omada, said:
"Every major technology shift creates a governance gap, and AI agents are no exception. Organizations are moving quickly to adopt AI. However, most cannot answer four fundamental questions: What AI agents do I have? Who is accountable for them? What can they reach? And what is the risk? Omada Agent Governance is built to answer exactly these questions."

Key Capabilities of Agent Governance

Omada Agent Governance is designed to improve enterprise identity security by strengthening visibility across AI agents and non-human identities, including those operating across cloud environments.

The solution enables organizations to assign ownership to AI agents, reducing the risk of unmanaged or orphaned identities. It also improves operational clarity by mapping how identities, access permissions, and system dependencies interact across the enterprise.

In addition, it helps organizations reduce risk exposure by comparing assigned access rights with actual usage patterns, identifying over-privileged identities, and tightening control over AI-driven systems.

Compliance and Security Alignment

The solution is designed to support alignment with leading governance and security frameworks, including the EU AI Act, NIST AI Risk Management Framework (RMF), ISO 42001, OWASP, and MITRE ATLAS.

By integrating these standards into its governance model, Omada aims to help enterprises strengthen compliance posture, improve audit readiness, and establish consistent governance practices across both human and AI identities.

Flexible Integration Across Enterprise Systems

Omada Agent Governance is designed to be environment-agnostic, allowing organizations to implement it alongside existing Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) and Identity and Access Management (IAM) investments. This flexibility enables enterprises to extend governance capabilities without replacing existing infrastructure.

Conclusion

Omada’s introduction of Agent Governance reflects the growing need for identity security models that extend beyond human users. As AI agents become more deeply embedded in enterprise systems, governance, accountability, and visibility are becoming critical requirements. With this launch, Omada is positioning itself at the center of the emerging AI identity security landscape.
