SailPoint announces new integration with the Claude Compliance API to provide enterprise-grade Identity Security for AI platforms.

SailPoint announces new integration with the Claude Compliance API to provide enterprise-grade Identity Security for AI platforms. SailPoint | Published 22 May 2026 SailPoint's new Claude Compliance API connector, delivers essential governance and visibility over Claude Enterprise access and usage SailPoint, Inc. (Nasdaq: SAIL), a leader in enterprise identity security, today announced a new integration with the Claude Compliance API. The new SailPoint connector with the Claude Compliance API provides Claude Enterprise organisations with the essential visibility and governance needed to secure access to and usage of AI platforms across the enterprise. As enterprises increasingly adopt powerful AI tools like Claude to accelerate business innovation, they face a new frontier of security challenges. This integration addresses the critical need for robust identity security over the expanding AI landscape. The SailPoint Claude Compliance API connector extends SailPoint's enterprise-grade identity security to Anthropic's Claude Enterprise, enabling organisations to confidently adopt AI while maintaining stringent security and compliance standards. "While the industry discusses the future of AI security, SailPoint is delivering it today. As Anthropic makes its Compliance API available, SailPoint is building a meaningful, governance-focused integration," said Chandra Gnanasambandam, EVP of Product and Chief Technology Officer, SailPoint. "This gives our customers the ability to not just monitor, but truly govern their AI workforce from day one, treating AI platform access with the same rigor and contextual understanding as they would for a critical application or datastore." The new integration reinforces SailPoint's commitment to securing the modern enterprise by extending identity security to the rapidly growing landscape of AI tools. By integrating Claude Enterprise into the SailPoint Identity Security Cloud, SailPoint enables enterprises to: * Gain unified visibility: Centrally manage all Claude Enterprise users, groups, group members, and roles. This ensures consistent governance policies across your entire digital ecosystem. * Govern non-human identities: Discover and govern Claude AI agents as part of SailPoint's single agent registry across your organisations' ecosystem, a critical step in securing the automated workforce of the future. * Apply adaptive identity: Secure access across your agent ecosystem, including Claude agents, from a central control point by leveraging our AI-powered platform to understand the context of access; who is accessing what, when, and why. This real-time, risk-adaptive approach extends to Claude Enterprise, delivering deeper security insights. The definition of an identity continues to expand beyond human users to include non-human entities like machines, APIs, workloads, and now, AI agents. This proliferation of AI tools in the enterprise has created a risk of "Shadow AI," where usage is ungoverned and invisible to IT and security teams. The SailPoint integration with the Claude Compliance API directly addresses this risk, providing the necessary controls to manage and secure these non-human identities and giving Claude Enterprise organisations the confidence to innovate securely.

SailPoint launches AI Identity Security upgrade, expanding AI and machine identity governance landscape.

SailPoint launches AI Identity Security upgrade, expanding AI and machine identity governance landscape. * 2026.04.10 * 10:14 * Industrial and Commercial Times, Chen Youjia Leading identity security provider SailPoint recently announced a major upgrade to its AI-driven SailPoint platform, marking an important milestone in advancing its "Adaptive Identity" vision to help enterprises address increasingly severe cybersecurity challenges amid rapid expansion of cloud environments and AI applications. This upgrade focuses on integrating and enhancing several key capabilities. First, in privileged management, SailPoint introduced two foundational features - "Privilege Discovery and Classification" and "Privilege Insights" - to automatically assist enterprises in discovering and classifying internal privileged accounts, providing intelligent analysis to help organizations comprehensively grasp access risks. Simultaneously, with the rapid growth of non-human identities, the platform also added agent identity security connectors supporting multiple mainstream AI platforms, including Microsoft 365 Copilot, Databricks, Amazon Bedrock, Google Vertex AI, Microsoft Foundry, Salesforce Agentforce, ServiceNow AI Platform, and Snowflake Cortex AI, while simultaneously strengthening more comprehensive lifecycle management mechanisms for traditional machine accounts. In terms of user experience, SailPoint launched the AI Intelligent Agent Suite Harbor Pilot, designed specifically for Identity Security Cloud users to provide AI-driven agent services, transforming originally complex operations into simple, guided conversational workflows. Users can submit access requests using everyday language, significantly improving operational efficiency and experience. Additionally, Observability & Insights and Data Access Security features have also been upgraded, combined with Identity Graph to provide privilege visualization and risk detection capabilities, helping enterprises fully understand identity activities and data access contexts. At the same time, SailPoint deeply integrated Data Access Security into Identity Graph, visually displaying data access paths to further expand the contextual framework of identity and data access, and added multiple features to help enterprises identify and manage risks associated with exposure of sensitive data. In foundational governance capabilities, SailPoint continues to optimize system architecture, launching a new-generation Access Certification engine and a comprehensively revamped segregation of duties function, demonstrating its commitment to continuously enhancing basic governance capabilities. These upgrades are expected to be officially released in the second half of 2026. Today's increasingly complex cyber threats make traditional identity governance models struggle to keep pace with the speed of cloud adoption and the rapid increase in AI and machine identities. In response, SailPoint's Executive Vice President of Products and Chief Technology Officer Chandra Gnanasambandam stated: "As a market leader, SailPoint is actively driving a new AI-driven adaptive identity security strategy, providing continuous visibility and real-time governance capabilities for various identities, including AI identities, machines, agents, and certifications. This year's goal is to help customers achieve a least-privilege, or even zero-standing-privilege, security model to meet the dual demands of speed and security in AI-driven enterprises." The adaptive identity framework is based on four core principles: First, real-time governance. Shifting from periodic reviews to continuous, fully automated governance mechanisms capable of real-time detection, prevention, and remediation of risks. Second, protecting AI and machine identities. Extending the scope of identity security from human users to rapidly growing non-human identities. Third, universal and dynamic privilege management. Providing "just-in-time authorized" access across enterprise environments, ensuring each identity only has the specific access permissions it needs. Fourth, integrated threat management. Bridging critical gaps between identity management and security operations centers to accelerate threat detection and response. This new framework will further solidify SailPoint's position as a market leader, not only showcasing its forward-looking vision for future identity security but also delivering substantive innovative outcomes. % buffered Powered by GliaStudios PR(Club Med Taiwan) PR(Maplestory Worlds)
