Ready to secure your agentic AI workforce?
Introduction to Cisco Zero Trust for Agentic AI
Cisco defends against agentic AI security risks by uniquely tying identity context directly to access control and real-time behavior. This reduces security risks like hardcoded credentials, overprivileged access, and unpredictable behaviors.
Establish agent accountability
Discover and map agents to human owners in a centralized directory for a clear audit trail with every autonomous action. Help ensure consistent authentication with standardized identity management.
Enforce least-privileged access
Integrate identity context into short-lived, tool-specific permissions—a level of just-in-time, just-enough, and just long-enough control that point solutions can't provide.
Stop threats and non-deterministic drift
Monitor intent, using real-time behavioral inspection to block unsafe actions, data exfiltration, and AI threats that static, rule-based security tools frequently miss.
Eliminate security blind spots
Close the loop with identity-aware enforcement of access. Point solutions often miss risks by being blind to the critical link between an agent’s identity and its real-time behavior on the wire.
Integrated zero-trust solution for AI agents
Cisco brings order to the chaos of the agentic workforce by uniquely integrating identity, access, and behavioral protections to eliminate security blind spots.
Know every agent
Discover, manage, and register AI agents in a centralized directory. Map every agent identity to an accountable human owner to help ensure full visibility and auditability.
Authorize every action
Enforce consistent, least-privilege access control policies based on identity and context through a Model Context Protocol (MCP) gateway. Issue short-lived, just-in-time tokens for agent interaction with MCP servers and tools.
Adapt to risk in real time
Inspect agentic traffic to understand intent. Proactively block threats like prompt injections or malicious websites, data exfiltration, and unsafe or unintended actions before they cause harm.
