Beyond Identity Launches Ceros to Secure Autonomous AI Agents

Ceros approaches the challenge of agentic security by treating it as an operational necessity rather than a simple compliance task. The platform provides a control layer that monitors for data exfiltration and enforces strict access boundaries, effectively allowing companies to unpause stalled AI projects while containing shadow AI risks. By cryptographically linking every agentic action to verified hardware identities and compliant devices, the system aims to solve common vulnerabilities like prompt injection, over-permissioned workflows, and unauthorized tool execution.

Beyond Identity CEO Jasson Casey emphasized that current AI threats require robust identity and device trust before any agent hits the network. The platform offers a multi-dimensional identity vector that tracks exactly who is running an agent, the authentication process behind it, and the specific applications the agent is permitted to access. This granular level of oversight allows CISOs to maintain visibility across the entire AI ecosystem, from the initial discovery of installed agents to the forensic auditing of their runtime behavior. The Ceros team is currently showcasing these capabilities at the Identiverse 2026 conference in Las Vegas.
