   SailPoint's Mark McClain: AI agent identities need unified governance

   SailPoint CEO and founder Mark McClain told Hong Kong and Taiwan media during a late-September visit that enterprises are moving toward a "hybrid workforce" of humans and AI agents, and that the core challenge is building a unified control plane that covers both human and non-human identity risk. He said many companies hold large numbers of ungoverned non-human identities, including API tokens, service accounts, software bots and autonomous agents, sometimes outnumbering human identities by 100 times, and cited a recent Hugging Face incident involving AI as an example of missing detection, governance and blocking controls. SailPoint said it shipped related security offerings in May and October and acquired Israeli startup Entro in June, whose technology it says can discover roughly 1,200 distinct non-human identity types; McClain said the company manages hundreds of millions of identities, retains 97% of customers and expects Asia to contribute about 15% of annual recurring revenue.

   SailPoint Navigate 2026: enterprises race to secure AI agents at machine speed

   At its Navigate 2026 conference in Austin, SailPoint framed identity security for AI agents as a board-level priority: one Fortune 500 company that insisted it had no agents discovered 10,000 of them, many holding standing admin privileges. SailPoint pitched its Autonomous Identity approach along with just-in-time authorization and a Lineage Map tracing the chain from human to agent to tool to data, arguing that policy enforcement must sit outside the agent; its CEO said machine identities now number 109 for every human. AWS said tasks on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore grew 15-fold in the first six months of the year, with a new agent created every 4.5 seconds.
