SailPoint, Inc., a leader in unified identity security, is experiencing strong enterprise adoption of its adaptive identity security approach as organizations address the rapid growth of non-human identities—including machines, AI agents, and automated workloads. The company’s latest innovations, such as SailPoint Agent Identity Security, provide comprehensive discovery, classification, governance, and protection across all identity types, enabling real-time, context-aware access decisions in complex, AI-driven environments.
The explosion of AI and automation has dramatically increased non-human identities, creating new security challenges that traditional static policies cannot address. Organizations now need adaptive, intelligent identity security that continuously assesses risk signals—such as user behavior, device health, location, and time—to adjust access dynamically and minimize exposure.
SailPoint is meeting this demand with innovations that extend visibility and control across every identity type. SailPoint Agent Identity Security specifically targets the governance of autonomous AI agents, providing the same level of oversight applied to human identities.
Early traction from key customers underscores the market shift:
Tony Leraris, Chief Information Officer at Accenture, stated: “As the number of autonomous agents grows, organizations need a way to govern their access with the same rigor as human identities. We will be evaluating how SailPoint’s Agent Identity Security can complement our existing controls to support safe, enterprise-wide AI adoption.”
Victor Montgomery, Director, Information Security at State Farm, added: “Adaptive identity, to me, is about moving from static, one-size-fits-all access controls to a more flexible, context-aware model. This means continuously assessing risk signals like user behavior, device health, location, and time, and then adjusting access in real-time to minimize exposure.”
Mark Child, Associate Research Director at IDC, noted: “Our research found that more than half of organizations worldwide are expanding their deployment of unified identity platforms as they strive to deliver comprehensive coverage of all users across all environments, while reducing complexity. A comprehensive, natively integrated, and highly scalable platform is one of the top factors organizations are looking for from their identity and access providers. Moreover, enterprises stress the need to manage and secure a growing spectrum of user categories, including non-human identity types such as AI agents, cloud workloads, device identities, and service accounts.”
Chandra Gnanasambandam, CTO and EVP Product at SailPoint, commented: “We saw an opportunity to help organizations navigate this new phase of identity security with innovations that can adapt to modern automated, complex identity environments. The strong response we’ve seen from our customers signals that they have been waiting for a vision like this and are now moving to adopt it quickly and with conviction.”
SailPoint’s adaptive identity security platform unifies identity, security, and data intelligence to protect enterprises from advanced identity-based threats. Built on principles like zero-standing privilege and contextualized risk, it transforms identity management into a strategic security advantage.
