Delinea delivers runtime authorization for AI agents, the only platform to enforce policy on actions before they execute. Delinea, the identity security platform for governing what humans, machines, and AI agents do once they have access, is releasing runtime authorization capabilities for AI agents. The platform becomes the only one to enforce policy on what agents do inside a session before they act, rather than just verifying how they connect. AI agents now operate autonomously across production databases, SSH hosts, Kubernetes clusters, cloud consoles, and MCP servers. Most identity security approaches either verify a connection when a session opens and audit or revoke access after the fact, or can only see traffic routed through their own server, leaving direct connections outside their view. Delinea's new capabilities enforce policy on what happens inside the session, action by action, before execution. "The security industry spent years solving credential theft, but AI agents have introduced a new problem: authorized access doing unauthorized things," said Art Gilliland, CEO at Delinea. "You can have perfect credential hygiene and still have an agent tear through your production environment in milliseconds. Recording what happened or revoking access after the fact doesn't stop that, enforcing policy on the action as it runs does. The perimeter has moved to inside the session, and no one has figured out how to address that until now." Runtime authorization capabilities. The runtime authorization system delivers consistent policy and a complete audit record regardless of how agents connect. Agents reach databases, SSH hosts, Kubernetes clusters, and cloud consoles directly, not only through an MCP server. The Delinea Platform authorizes and records each connection through a single control point across every protocol agents use, giving security teams the same visibility and enforcement regardless of how the agent was deployed or which systems it reached. The platform eliminates standing credentials for attackers to exploit. The agent never holds a credential. Delinea injects it just-in-time at the moment of access, scoped to the task rather than inherited from the person who deployed it, and revokes it automatically when the task completes. Because the credential is never exposed to the agent, there is no lingering exposure between sessions. Policy is enforced on every action, not just when the session opens. A single AI session can carry dozens of tool calls, each with a different risk profile. The Delinea Platform evaluates and enforces policy on each tool call individually, allowing it, blocking it, or pulling in a human before it executes. When an agent misbehaves, the blast radius stays contained. The platform applies policy built specifically for agents, not retrofitted from human access controls. It identifies whether a connection is agent-driven or human-driven before granting access and applies agent-specific policy at the moment of connection so the right controls are in place before the first action runs. Every tool call, database query, and SSH command is recorded and accountable to a specific identity. When something goes wrong, teams have the ability to investigate, respond, and stand behind every access decision that was made. "AI agents were accessing our production systems and we had no way to know what they were actually doing once they were in," said Dhruv Kumar, Infrastructure Product Manager at Telnyx. "With Delinea, every action is now tied to a named identity and recorded at the action level. That's what gave us the confidence to keep moving forward with AI without taking on risk we couldn't see." Runtime authorization for AI agents is available now as part of the Delinea Platform. No new infrastructure is required, and organizations can apply Zero Standing Privilege to AI agents where risk demands it. Delinea will demonstrate these capabilities at Black Hat (booth #2367) and Ai4 (booth #946), both taking place August 4-6 in Las Vegas. For more information, visit delinea.com.

Delinea has launched runtime authorization capabilities for AI agents, claiming to be the only platform that enforces policy on agent actions before they execute. The identity security platform addresses risks from AI agents operating autonomously across production databases, SSH hosts, Kubernetes clusters, and cloud consoles. The technology injects credentials just-in-time rather than allowing agents to hold them, evaluating and enforcing policy on each tool call individually. This allows security teams to allow, block, or require human approval before actions execute. "The security industry spent years solving credential theft, but AI agents have introduced a new problem: authorized access doing unauthorized things," said Art Gilliland, Delinea's chief executive officer. The platform maintains a complete audit record of every action tied to a named identity, regardless of how agents connect to systems. Runtime authorization for AI agents is available now as part of the Delinea Platform.
Delinea launches new partner program to drive partner profitability and Scale growth. Delinea | Published 16 July 2026 Delinea Partner Advantage Program brings codified rules of engagement and AI-powered enablement to channel Delinea, the runtime identity security platform that governs what humans, machines, and AI agents do once they have access, today announced the launch the launch of Delinea Partner Advantage Program. The new comprehensive framework is built to deliver proven identity security technology, protected profitability, and ease of doing business. Developed with direct partner input, including a global partner listening survey, the Delinea Partner Advantage Program is designed to address the most persistent pain points in the channel: margin erosion, channel conflict, and ambiguous rules of engagement. The program gives partners a clear, structured path to deliver identity security outcomes to their customers and provides a foundation for predictable, profitable growth. Beyond protecting discounts, the program is structured to help partners compound the value of every customer relationship they build. "Partners don't care about your partner program," said Scott Goree, senior vice president of channel and alliances at Delinea. "They care about technology that works, protected discounts, and a vendor that's easy to work with. We built this program around what partners told us they actually need." "Across the Asia Pacific region, partners are looking for ways to grow recurring revenue, expand security services offerings and build deeper customer relationships while maintaining profitability," said Cynthia Lee, APAC Vice President at Delinea. "The Partner Advantage Program gives them the structure, protection and enablement needed to scale their identity security practices as organisations increasingly focus on securing AI, machine and human identities. The Delinea Partner Advantage Program has three core tenets - Protect, Align, and Scale - and introduces a modern structure to support how partners work today. Key features of the program include: * Codified Rules of Engagement: Clear, published deal registration, teaming protections, and Earned Incumbency to ensure partners who invest in building and expanding customer relationships are protected on renewals and rewarded for their ongoing contribution. * AI-Driven Enablement: AI-powered just-in-time training and certifications that deliver the right content at the right moment in the sales cycle alongside an AI-powered partner portal. * Channel Autonomy: Streamlined processes, tools, and automation designed to remove friction from the full quote-to-cash journey, enabling partners to spend less time navigating vendor complexity and more time selling. The program launches as AI reshapes what customers need from identity security. According to the Delinea 2026 Identity Security Report, 90% of Australian organisations expect AI to amplify identity-related threats in the coming years, and 41% say AI expansion has already increased their non-human identity risk in the past 12 months. That demand is the growth opportunity the Partner Advantage Program is built to capture, giving partners a new revenue stream backed by a platform designed to govern access for every human, machine, and AI identity. "The Delinea Partner Advantage Program reflects a strong commitment to building successful, long-term partnerships," said Mark Thornberry, SVP Partnerships, GuidePoint Security. "The program provides a clear framework that supports how we work together in the market, while recognising the value partners bring through the customer relationships we cultivate and support." To support partners at every stage of their relationship with Delinea, the program offers three tiers: Select for building expertise, Premier for growing practice depth, and Elite for leading at scale. Each tier is structured to reflect the depth of engagement and unlock the right level of access, investment, and support. Enrollment in the Delinea Partner Advantage Program is open to selling partners across all tiers now, with roles for MSPs, GSIs, advisory, and technology partners coming soon.

Delinea launches global partner programme. Mark Bowen 16 July, 2026 The Delinea Partner Advantage Program introduces new engagement rules, AI-powered enablement and tiered partner benefits designed to support channel growth. Delinea has launched the Delinea Partner Advantage Program, introducing a new global channel framework designed to support partners through updated engagement policies, AI-powered enablement and tiered programme benefits. Developed following partner feedback, including a global partner survey, the programme aims to address issues such as channel conflict, deal protection and partner profitability. According to Delinea, the programme is built around three principles - Protect, Align and Scale - and introduces a structured framework for partners delivering the company's identity security platform. "Partners don't care about your partner programme," said Scott Goree, Senior Vice President of Channel and Alliances, Delinea. "They care about technology that works, protected discounts, and a vendor that's easy to work with. We built this programme around what partners told us they actually need." The programme includes published rules of engagement covering deal registration, teaming protections and earned incumbency discounts for partners managing existing customer relationships. Delinea has also introduced AI-powered training, certification resources and a new partner portal designed to provide sales guidance throughout the customer lifecycle. In addition, the programme includes tools intended to simplify quoting, ordering and other channel processes, with the aim of reducing administrative effort for partners. The launch comes as organisations continue to assess the security implications of Artificial Intelligence. Delinea cited findings from its 2026 Identity Security Report, which found that 92% of organisations expect AI to increase identity-related threats over the coming years, while 42% said expanding AI use had already increased risks associated with non-human identities during the previous 12 months. "The Delinea Partner Advantage Program reflects a strong commitment to building successful, long-term partnerships," said Mark Thornberry, Senior Vice President, Partnerships, GuidePoint Security. "The programme provides a clear framework that supports how we work together in the market, while recognising the value partners bring through the customer relationships we cultivate and support." The programme offers three partner tiers: Elite, Premier and Select. Delinea said enrolment is now open for selling partners, with additional roles for managed service providers (MSPs), global systems integrators (GSIs), advisory partners and technology partners to be introduced at a later date.
Delinea, an identity security platform, has announced a product integration with Cyera, an AI security platform, to connect privileged access management with sensitive data exposure intelligence. The integration automatically correlates identities with accessible data, helping security teams identify and remediate high-risk access paths across human, machine and AI identities. The integration works via API, with Cyera's Data Security Posture Management system discovering and classifying sensitive data across cloud and on-premises environments. This data classification flows into Delinea, where each identity is correlated with accessible data to create a continuously updated risk profile. Security teams can then prioritise remediation and access reviews based on data sensitivity and exposure levels. The partnership addresses challenges as AI agents interact with data at machine speed, enabling data-aware identity security management.
