Secure every
non-human identity.
In the age of the identity explosion, GraphDefend discovers every non-human identity, scores its risk in real time, catches threats as they happen, and acts where dashboards stop — revoke a compromised identity in one click, govern every new one the moment it's created.

The non-human identity gap is already inside your perimeter
Machine identities scaled faster than the controls meant to govern them — leaving a sprawling, unseen attack surface that sits outside IAM and audit review.
0:1
Non-human to human identities
For every employee, ~100 machine identities operate across your stack — far more than any team can enumerate by hand.
0%
Breaches involve a secret
Most incidents trace back to a single leaked or over-privileged credential — often granted broad, static access.
0%
Of NHIs are ungoverned
No owner, no rotation, no expiry — standing access that operates autonomously and never gets reviewed.
Everything you need to secure non-human identity, in one platform
Discover every identity, understand its risk, govern it at scale, detect threats in real time, and build trust in your autonomous systems.
Discover Every Non-Human Identity
AI agents, service accounts, workloads, APIs, secrets, and machine identities are multiplying faster than security teams can track. GraphDefend provides continuous discovery across your entire enterprise—eliminating identity blind spots before they become security risks.
Understand Identity Risk in Real Time
Not every identity is dangerous. GraphDefend uses graph-based intelligence to reveal relationships, privilege paths, ownership gaps, and attack exposure—helping security teams focus on the risks that matter most.
Govern Autonomous Identities at Scale
As AI agents and machine identities operate independently, manual governance no longer works. GraphDefend continuously enforces ownership, lifecycle management, least privilege, and policy compliance across every non-human identity.
Detect Identity Threats Before They Escalate
Modern attacks increasingly target identities instead of infrastructure. GraphDefend continuously monitors identity behavior, detects anomalous activity, and identifies attack paths in real time to stop threats before they spread.
Build Trust in the Autonomous Enterprise
The future of enterprise security depends on trusted autonomous systems. GraphDefend empowers organizations to innovate with AI by providing complete visibility, intelligent governance, and continuous protection for every non-human identity.
Discover, secure, defend, and govern every non-human identity
A complete NHI security platform — full inventory, posture management, non-human ITDR, and lifecycle governance — connected by one identity graph.
Inventory every non-human identity, automatically
Agentless discovery across cloud, SaaS, identity providers, and secret stores builds one live inventory of every service account, API key, OAuth app, secret, certificate, and AI agent — with the business context and relationships behind each one.
- Agentless connectors for AWS, Azure, GCP, Okta, GitHub, and 18+ systems
- Covers service accounts, keys, OAuth apps, secrets, workloads, and AI agents
- Continuous inventory with ownership inference for orphaned identities
Every non-human identity in one continuous inventory
AI agents, MCP servers, service accounts, keys, OAuth apps, and secrets — discovered automatically, scored by risk, and tied to an owner. No agents, no spreadsheets.

What only GraphDefend does
The market splits into camps — tools that discover but can't enforce, tools that broker access but can't see it, tools that find agents but can't act. GraphDefend is the intersection: discovery, real-time enforcement, and agent brokering, all on one live identity graph.
We don't just list identities — we cut them
One click — with a dry-run preview first — cascades a kill through an entire agent spawn-tree in seconds. Discovery and response in one platform: lists tell you what's risky; GraphDefend shuts it down.
Built for AI agents and MCP from the ground up
Every agent gets a just-in-time, least-scope token — an MCP client never inherits a standing credential — and unknown MCP clients are denied by default.
We know what an identity can actually do
Exercisable attack paths to your crown-jewel resources, with the minimal set of changes that closes them. Explainable and deterministic — no ML training data required.
Get early accessA time machine for identity
Ask what the blast radius was as of last Tuesday. A bitemporal graph powers forensics, drift detection, and audit — a question most tools can't answer.
Get early accessThe graph is the moat
Discovery, risk scoring, brokering, and the kill switch all read from one live identity graph — which is why we rank findings by what they can reach, not by raw severity.
See the difference in your own environment
Connect one account and watch us find — and cut — a risky path live.
One platform, one graph — from credential to crown jewel
GraphDefend unifies discovery, posture, ITDR, and lifecycle governance into a single live model of your non-human identity estate — and the means to act on it, from instant revocation to creation-time policy. One source of truth for security, IAM, and platform teams.
