But only 13% of organizations believe that they have the right AI agent governance in place [1]. Persistent credentials, unclear ownership and disconnected controls make it harder to govern agents as they interact with other agents, invoke tools and act across teams, platforms and clouds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><i>&#8220;The winners in enterprise AI are changing how their business runs, not simply adding more AI to it,&#8221; said<\/i>&nbsp;<b><i>Dinesh Nirmal, Senior Vice President, IBM Software<\/i><\/b><i>. &#8220;For agents to take on real work across the systems a company depends on, it requires an AI operating model \u2013 one that connects agents to the business&#8217;s data, applications and infrastructure and runs them with the same discipline as its most critical systems. Build trust and control into that model, and agents stop being a technology and become a way of doing business.&#8221;<\/i>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s announcements extend IBM&#8217;s portfolio to deliver an AI operating model of four essential systems working together: agents, data, automation and hybrid infrastructure. This starts with&nbsp;the trust and control every agent needs \u2013 a verified identity, only the access it needs, and one place to discover, secure and evaluate agents regardless of where they were built.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Extending<\/b>&nbsp;<b>HashiCorp<\/b>&nbsp;<b>Vault to AI agents<\/b> <br \/><b>HashiCorp<\/b>&nbsp;<b>Vault<\/b>&nbsp;manages the secrets and credentials that applications and services use to access business systems. It provides that control through centrally managed secrets, automated rotation for supported credentials, and dynamically generated credentials that expire or can be revoked. These capabilities help reduce the time exposed credentials remain usable and limit access to the permissions configured for each role.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>HashiCorp&nbsp;Vault already secures non-human identities for organizations including ABN AMRO, Adobe, athenahealth, BBVA, BlackRock, Canva, Duke Energy, Expedia, London Stock Exchange, Starbucks, Swiss Federal Railways and Target, across systems that process billions of dollars in transactions [2].&nbsp;HashiCorp&nbsp;will now extend those capabilities to AI agents, issuing secured, short-lived credentials that limit each agent to what it needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Establishing agent identity and accountability<\/b> <br \/>AI agents are a growing class of non-human identity, alongside applications and services. As they begin acting across business systems, enterprises need a clear record of who owns each agent and what authority it has been granted.&nbsp;HashiCorp&nbsp;is combining governed agent identity with credential controls to help organizations delegate work with defined authority and accountability.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When used with&nbsp;<b>HashiCorp<\/b>&nbsp;<b>Vault, Agent Identity<\/b>&nbsp;establishes&nbsp;the authoritative record for each agent, such as who owns it, its lifecycle&nbsp;status&nbsp;and the authority it has been granted. Built to extend existing identity and security investments, it shares relevant identity and authorization context with&nbsp;<b>Vault&#8217;s credential controls<\/b>&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;ultimately&nbsp;enforcing&nbsp;least-privilege access and enabling real-time revocation when an agent&nbsp;attempts&nbsp;an unauthorized action.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Controlling agent credentials and access<\/b> <br \/>Identifying an agent is only the start. Enterprises also need to control the credentials it uses to reach databases, applications and cloud services \u2013 and how long those credentials remain valid.&nbsp;As agents invoke tools and act across business systems, their credentials become a critical security boundary. An agent with a long-lived, overprivileged credential can put systems and data at risk if&nbsp;it&#8217;s&nbsp;compromised or acts outside its intended task. Enterprises need to&nbsp;establish&nbsp;what each agent&#8217;s job is, limit the access it receives and revoke that access when circumstances change.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These controls extend beyond&nbsp;initial&nbsp;authentication. If an agent&nbsp;attempts&nbsp;to retrieve information or perform actions outside its approved permissions, the access can be denied and session revoked in real time to prevent unauthorized activity. Vault&#8217;s short-lived credentials and least-privilege controls can further restrict what an agent accesses and the duration of those permissions.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Additional<\/b>&nbsp;<b>capabilities include:<\/b>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><b>Vault 2.2<\/b> gives agents their own secured accounts, automatically renews their credentials and incorporates post-quantum encryption for quantum-era threats.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><b>Secure Hub<\/b>&nbsp;(public preview) gives companies centralized visibility across their Vault environments to make it easier to understand operational health,&nbsp;usage&nbsp;and security resources.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At&nbsp;TechXchange, client speakers will share how they use Vault to secure enterprise applications,&nbsp;workloads&nbsp;and AI agents&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><b>athenahealth:<\/b>&nbsp;Automating certificate management with Vault&#8217;s PKI engine.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><b>Albert Einstein College of Medicine:<\/b>&nbsp;Applying IBM Verify and Vault to AI agent identity, just-in-time access, dynamic&nbsp;secrets&nbsp;and auditability.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><b>Optum:<\/b>&nbsp;Using Vault Radar to detect exposed secrets and Boundary for just-in-time, identity-based access.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><b>Seven-Eleven Japan:<\/b>&nbsp;Centralizing and encrypting secrets with Vault Enterprise and detecting hardcoded secrets with Vault Radar.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><b>Yum!

But they also need to see every agent they have, wherever it was built.&nbsp;<b>IBM<\/b>&nbsp;<b>watsonx<\/b>&nbsp;<b>Orchestrate<\/b>&nbsp;works across the AI ecosystem, not inside a single vendor&#8217;s platform, to give organizations one place to discover, secure and evaluate their agents.&nbsp;Capabilities include:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li><b>Discover<\/b>&nbsp;(tech preview): Organizations&nbsp;can&#8217;t&nbsp;govern agents they&nbsp;don&#8217;t&nbsp;know exist. Orchestrate connects to platforms such as Amazon Bedrock, Microsoft Foundry and Google Gemini&nbsp;to find&nbsp;agents built in third-party environments, so teams can see and manage agents instead of adding them manually. This capability also extends to models and MCP servers.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><b>Contain<\/b>&nbsp;(tech preview): One rogue agent can disrupt others and spread mistakes across the business. Orchestrate now runs agents in isolated sandboxes so a rogue agent&nbsp;can&#8217;t&nbsp;interfere with others.

Teams using Orchestrate can now test the quality, accuracy and compliance of agents,&nbsp;models&nbsp;and MCP servers before deployment, then&nbsp;monitor&nbsp;them in production. Built-in cost tracking shows each agent&#8217;s model and token use, so teams can spot what&#8217;s driving spend and fix it.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Orchestrate also works with&nbsp;Vault&#8217;s credential controls&nbsp;and Agent Identity to&nbsp;establish&nbsp;what each agent&#8217;s job is, govern its authority and enforce least-privilege credential access. Together, these controls help organizations authorize and audit agent actions and rapidly revoke trust and credentials when risk changes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Connecting agents to the business<\/b> <br \/>Once agents&nbsp;are authorized to&nbsp;use a company&#8217;s APIs and tools, they need to know what already exists, how systems connect, what can be reused safely and what their actions could affect.&nbsp;<b>IBM Integration Intelligence Hub<\/b>&nbsp;is built to provide that knowledge through its Unified Context Engine, so agents can fix problems like stuck messages or deploy an API using&nbsp;what&#8217;s&nbsp;already in place. Skills, approval&nbsp;policies and audit controls keep those actions in check. Instead of rebuilding for AI, organizations can put agents to work on the systems they already depend on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Scaling agents with NVIDIA<\/b> <br \/>Agent Identity and&nbsp;HashiCorp&nbsp;Vault integrate with NVIDIA&nbsp;OpenShell&nbsp;secure runtime software, the foundation of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nvidianews.nvidia.com\/news\/openshell-reference-architecture\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">NVIDIA OpenShell<\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nvidianews.nvidia.com\/news\/openshell-reference-architecture\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Architecture<\/a>.
