Highflame Identity is now open source: agent identity on open standards. Read the launch

Govern every agent. Prove every action

Highflame sits between your agents and everything they can reach. Each one gets a real identity. Every action is authorized before it runs, then signed, so "who did what, on whose authority" is already answered.

The agent problem isn’t intelligence. It’s authority

And when every agent can call tools, touch data, and trigger workflows without verifiable identity and scoped authorization, the flaw that once took weeks to exploit now runs in seconds across the production fleet.

48%*of production AI agents run unsecured
85%*have no formal accountability for agent behavior
54%*hit or suspected an agent security incident in the past year
Runaway action no kill switch

A coding agent deletes production records faster than any human can intervene. Nothing stops the action mid-flight.

Standing access tokens outlive the work

Credentials stay live long after the workflow ends. A standing door, never closed.

Scope creep delegation unbounded

A sub-agent inherits more authority than it should, scope growing instead of shrinking with every hop.

Blast radius one credential, everywhere

One compromised credential moves laterally across systems. The breach is capped by nothing.

Give every agent identity and scoped authority, and unsafe actions become stoppable by design

When agents outnumber people 100 to 1, you can't review every action. Authorization is zero-trust by default

From agent sprawl to fully governed

It comes down to three questions: which agents exist and who they act for, what each one can reach and is allowed to do, and what it actually did. Discover, control, govern.

01 · DISCOVER

Find every agent. Make each a first-class identity.

Agents are multiplying across every team and ecosystem, most of them unmanaged. Highflame discovers them all, connects the identities they already have, and mints verifiable ones where they don't, then maps the whole graph: which agent, acting for whom, reaching what.

  • Continuous discovery across clouds, IDEs, and SaaS
  • Connect existing identities or mint new ones with Highflame Identity
  • A live graph of every agent, its owner, and its tools
02 · CONTROL

Authorize every action, inline

A signal-detection engine raises hundreds of signals on every agent run, then scores them against a guardrail layer with adaptive controls that tighten as new patterns appear: every decision made inline, at every boundary the agent crosses.

  • Hundreds of signals on every agent run
  • Adaptive guardrail layer, under 10 ms
  • Inline decisions at every boundary
03 · GOVERN

Prove it to the board, to the auditor

Every action is attributed to the agent that took it and the human who owns it: a signed, tamper-evident record, mapped to the frameworks you report against. For audit, GRC, and risk teams, the answer is a query, not a quarter-long scramble.

  • Every action tied to the agent, and its human owner
  • OWASP · NIST · MITRE · EU AI Act, mapped by default
  • Posture, blast radius, and exportable proof

Anatomy of an agent

Agents often run through inherited permissions, shared secrets, and fragmented controls. With Highflame, agents become governed identities: attributable to a human, authorized at every boundary, constrained by policy, and auditable by default.

1
No identity Agent identity

The agent rides the user's token. Nothing to scope, revoke, or trace.

Every agent carries a verifiable SPIFFE identity, an owner, and a trust tier.

2
Everything exposed Inline redaction

PII, keys, and logic sit in the context window, in reach of every tool.

PII and secrets are stripped before they reach the model or any tool.

3
The model is the policy Signal detection + policy gate

Nothing stands between a decision and the action. Injection reroutes tool calls.

Every action is judged against policy and live signals before it runs.

4
Unvetted access Scoped, ephemeral creds

Long-lived shared keys, full access, no per-request scope.

Short-lived, per-tool credentials. Task scoped by default.

5
No trail Signed audit

Unaudited sessions. Incident response ends in "we don't know."

A tamper-evident receipt on every decision, mapped to your frameworks.

Open foundation for trusted Agent Identity

Security-critical infrastructure should be inspectable. Highflame’s identity core is open source as Highflame ZeroID, giving teams a transparent, standards-based foundation they can audit, self-host, and extend. Highflame Identity brings that same foundation to a managed Agent Identity & Authorization layer built for production teams.

Policy decisions for production agent workloads

Highflame maps every policy decision to frameworks like the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, OWASP LLM & Agentic, and MITRE ATLAS, turning runtime enforcement into audit-ready proof.

Agents create leverage. They also create exposure.

To Engineering it's leverage, to Security it's exposure, to IT it's another identity to manage, to Compliance it's an obligation. Highflame Agent Fabric address each one.

Engineering

Ship agents without waiting on every sign-off

Security approves policy and we enforce it at runtime. Teams move faster because the controls are already in place.

  • Sign off once, not per project
  • Same controls, build or buy
  • Delegate without a babysitter

Security

No agent acts outside your authority

Authorization every prompt, tool call, and delegation, not alerts after the fact. One policy, every boundary. Revoke access in seconds.

  • Decide, don't just detect
  • One policy, every boundary
  • Revoke agents in seconds

IT & Platform

Govern agents like every other identity

Discover every agent across clouds, IDEs, and SaaS, mint identities for the unattributed, and grant access just-in-time, with no standing permissions.

  • Inventory every agent
  • Mint identity for the unattributed
  • Just-in-time access
Learn more
Compliance

Turn "we think we're compliant" into proof

Every action ties to a named human, signed, with framework mappings built in. Generate Audit packs from controls that actually ran.

  • Signed, attributable audit
  • Frameworks mapped by default
  • Evidence on demand
