About us

Salt Security developed the industry’s first Agentic Security Platform, designed to secure the new digital infrastructure created by LLMs, AI agents, MCP servers, and APIs. As organizations deploy autonomous agents that reason, decide, and act across enterprise systems, the traditional security perimeter breaks down. Agents do not just think, they act. They call APIs, trigger workflows, write to databases, and execute tasks across your infrastructure. The moment an agent decides to do something, it leaves the model layer entirely and enters your enterprise systems. That is the action layer. And right now, most security teams have almost no visibility into it. The modern enterprise runs on an Agentic AI action layer where LLMs provide the reasoning, MCP servers provide the connectivity, and APIs are the buttons and levers that turn agent decisions into real-world consequences. Securing the model without securing the action layer is not a security strategy, it is a gap. Salt provides continuous visibility and protection across this architecture through the Agentic Security Graph—a correlated view of agents, MCP servers, APIs, and downstream systems that draws from four distinct data sources: external exposure, configuration posture, code-level signals, and live runtime traffic. By combining cloud-scale big data, patented AI/ML, and deep behavioral analysis, Salt detects the subtle attack patterns traditional tools miss, including business logic abuse, lateral movement, and low-and-slow attacks that pass prompt filters cleanly and only reveal themselves at the action layer. The Salt platform enables organizations to: • Discover all APIs, MCP servers, shadow deployments, and agent-connected services • Govern posture across distributed agentic environments • Detect and stop behavioral attacks in real time • Understand how AI agents interact with sensitive systems and data • Reduce risk while accelerating AI adoption

API Management Software

The Salt Agentic Security Platform secures the entire Agentic AI Action Layer, protecting the APIs, AI agents, and MCP-powered workflows that now power the modern enterprise. Salt correlates activity across millions of APIs, users, agents, and workloads over time to uncover hidden risk, stop sophisticated attacks, and expose the behaviors traditional security tools miss. At the core of the platform is the Agentic Security Graph, a dynamic map of every agent, MCP server, API connection, and data flow across your environment. Built on cloud-scale big data and proven ML and AI, it delivers continuous discovery, posture governance, and runtime threat protection across complex API ecosystems. Purpose-built for the agentic era, Salt deploys seamlessly into existing environments and enables organizations to accelerate AI adoption without sacrificing visibility or control. The AI agent is the new attack surface. Salt secures it.

    I’m thrilled to see Salt Security and CrowdStrike collaborating on another powerful integration. ☑️ ☑️ ☑️ ✅ And I think you’ll be just as excited once you hear what this combined solution delivers. By bringing together CrowdStrike’s AIDR and Salt’s agentic platform, we’re delivering deep, layered protection into the agentic action layer. In the session, we’ll cover: 📌 Why the Agentic Action Layer is the enforcement point for AI intent 📌 How AIDR protects the prompt layer for LLM security 📌 How attackers bypass LLM controls by targeting APIs and MCPs directly 📌 What AI-native Zero Trust looks like from prompt to production action Join Nick Rago and Chris Kachigian on June 30 to learn how to protect AI from prompt to action, with visibility across the full chain of intent. Great work, team! 👏 👏

    The industry keeps talking about AI models, but AI doesn't create risk when it thinks... it creates risk when it acts. Every AI agent relies on MCP servers and APIs to interact with data, systems, and business workflows. Yet most organizations have little visibility into those connections. Salt Cloud Connect for GitHub helps uncover the MCP servers operating in your environment, the APIs they can access, and the risks hidden within those relationships—so you can secure the Agentic Action Layer with confidence.

    The Future of Enterprise Transformation Is Being Shaped by AI. Without security, trust cannot exist. And without trust, AI cannot reach its full potential. This week, Salt Security was proud to sponsor the Apex Assembly National Canada Transformation Assembly in Toronto, bringing together an incredible community of Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 executives, CISOs, technology leaders, and transformation experts for a day of meaningful conversations, active learning, and collaboration. A recurring theme throughout the event was clear: Artificial Intelligence is no longer a future initiative. It is actively reshaping how organizations operate, innovate, and compete. Hearing security leaders share their perspectives on balancing innovation, resilience, governance, and trust in today's rapidly evolving threat landscape reinforced a critical reality: 🔐 AI adoption without security creates risk. 🤝 Trust is the foundation of successful AI transformation. 🌐 Security must evolve as quickly as the technologies it protects. Salt Security was honored to contribute to this conversation through our session: Agentic Security: The Next Frontier of Cybersecurity As AI agents rapidly emerge as the digital employees of the future, capable of making autonomous decisions and taking action at scale, organizations must begin asking a new set of security questions: ➡️ How do we secure AI agents? ➡️ How do we protect the APIs they depend on? ➡️ How do we govern LLM interactions and MCP communications? ➡️ How do we build trust into autonomous workflows from day one? During the session, we explored why Agentic AI introduces an entirely new attack surface and why securing APIs, AI agents, LLMs, and autonomous systems is becoming one of the most important cybersecurity challenges of our time. At Salt Security, we're helping organizations address this challenge through the industry's first Agentic Security Platform, designed to provide the visibility, protection, and governance needed for the next generation of AI powered enterprises. A huge thank you to Apex Assembly for hosting such a forward thinking event and to all the CISOs, security leaders, and transformation executives who shared their insights throughout the day. The future belongs to organizations that can innovate with AI and establish trust at scale. If you missed our session and would like to learn how Salt Security can help secure your APIs, AI agents, LLMs, and autonomous workflows, send me a DM. We'd be happy to showcase the power of Salt Security and discuss the value it can bring to your organization.

    It was a pleasure to have Salt Security as the Senior Supporter at the National Canada Transformation Assembly, hosted in Toronto, on June 17. Devin Poulter, Director of Sales East, Salt Security, presented on “Agentic Security starts with Actions .” As enterprises accelerate adoption of AI agents and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, they are unintentionally creating a new execution layer inside their environment. Every agent action, every orchestration workflow, and every automated decision runs on APIs. This emerging AI-driven API fabric is dynamic, distributed, and largely invisible to traditional security tools. In this session, Michael Callahan of Salt Security will explore how organizations can confidently scale agentic AI by gaining visibility into this action layer, governing it continuously, and protecting it in real time. Key Takeaways: • AI Agents Expand the Attack Surface : How autonomous agents and MCP servers are rapidly increasing internal API traffic and creating new security blind spots. • Discovery is the Foundation: Why you cannot secure what you cannot see and how continuous API and MCP discovery exposes shadow, zombie, and unmanaged endpoints. • Posture Gaps Become Agent Risk: How misconfigurations, over-permissioned APIs, and drift compound risk in AI-driven environments. • Runtime Context Matters: Why valid traffic can still be malicious and how context-aware protection detects logic abuse across the API fabric. • From API Security to AI Execution Security: How unifying discovery, governance, and protection creates a secure control plane for the AI Action Layer.
