Horizontal Security Product // AI Agent Identity

Ten Security Layers

The full NHI kill chain — Discovery through Emergency Response. 53 modules enforcing identity integrity at every layer of the AI agent stack, from authentication gating to fleet-wide exploitation detection.

LAYERS 2-3 // RUNTIME & CREDENTIALS
ENFORCING

Identity Runtime & Credential Lifecycle

Module 101 intercepts every agent authentication attempt at the point of execution. Module 20 verifies identity. Module 49 governs credential lifecycle — secret scanning, privilege analysis, Ed25519-attested attestation. Module 161 monitors token anomalies, orphaned NHIs, and OIDC spoofing with 18 real-time detectors.

LAYERS 4-5 // DELEGATION & FLEET
MONITORING

Delegation Chains & NHI Fleet Detection

Module 33 enforces cryptographically attested delegation scope with Ed25519-signed tokens and cascading revocation. Module 36 governs the full agent lifecycle from provisioning to decommissioning. The new NHI Fleet layer adds M122 (fleet exploitation detection), M147 (cloud IAM lateral movement), and M149 (orchestration trust chain validation).

IMPERSONATION
Detects AI agents acting as human users. Session analysis, timing signatures, and interaction pattern matching
SPAWN CONTROL
Controls agent-to-agent creation. Privilege inheritance rules, max spawn depth, mandatory registration of sub-agents
Featured Module // NHI Detection Anchor

M161 — NHI Integrity Sentinel

18 real-time detectors covering the full NHI threat surface — from token anomalies and OIDC spoofing to shadow NHI creation and cross-tenant correlation. The only module purpose-built for runtime NHI integrity monitoring.

IDENTITY
IDENTITY-DRIFT
Detects gradual divergence from established NHI behavioural baselines. Flags credential use patterns that no longer match the registered identity profile.
SPOOFING
SPOOF-DETECT
Identifies spoofed NHI tokens, forged agent cards, and impersonation attempts at the protocol layer. Validates OIDC claims against registered issuer metadata.
REVOCATION
REVOCATION-CHECK
Continuously validates that revoked credentials are not still accepted downstream. Detects revocation-gap attacks where tokens survive their kill signal.
ANOMALY
TOKEN-ANOMALY
Flags anomalous token usage patterns — unusual call frequency, unexpected scope claims, off-hours access, and volume spikes against established baselines.
LIFECYCLE
LONG-LIVED-TOKEN
Detects tokens exceeding maximum permitted lifetime. Identifies NHI credentials operating beyond their authorised rotation window.
OAUTH
SILENT-REFRESH-ABUSE
Catches OAuth silent refresh chains used to extend NHI credential persistence beyond session boundaries without explicit re-authorisation.
GOVERNANCE
ORPHANED-NHI
Discovers NHIs with no active owner, expired governance record, or decommissioned parent agent. The highest-risk governance blind spot.
PRIVILEGE
ESCALATION-WATCH
Monitors for privilege escalation attempts via NHI credentials — scope expansion, role assumption chains, and IAM policy manipulation.
CRYPTO
KEY-MONITOR
Tracks cryptographic key usage and rotation compliance. Flags keys operating beyond their authorised rotation schedule.
BEHAVIOUR
CALL-PATTERN-DRIFT
Detects unusual API call sequences from NHI endpoints — endpoint enumeration, API abuse, and call patterns inconsistent with the registered role.
TOOLING
TOOL-INVOCATION-ANOMALY
Flags unexpected tool calls from known NHI identities. Detects agents invoking tools outside their authorised capability scope.
CORRELATION
CROSS-AGENT-SPIKE
Identifies correlated NHI activity spikes across multiple agents — coordinated credential abuse campaigns invisible to per-agent monitoring.
COVERAGE
BLIND-SPOT-SCAN
Discovers NHIs invisible to existing monitoring coverage. Identifies identity governance gaps before attackers exploit them.
SHADOW
SHADOW-NHI
Detects unregistered, unauthorised NHI creation — shadow service accounts, rogue API keys, and agent identities outside the governance perimeter.
COMPLIANCE
COMPLIANCE-DRIFT
Tracks NHI governance posture changes against OWASP NHI Top 10, NIST, and EU AI Act requirements. Flags degrading compliance in real time.
VALIDATION
THIRD-PARTY-VALIDATION
Validates external NHI claims from third-party systems and federation providers. Detects trust chain manipulation at integration boundaries.
VENDOR
VENDOR-SCOPE-CREEP
Monitors for expanding vendor NHI permissions over time — the silent privilege accumulation pattern that precedes supply chain compromise.
FORENSICS
TIMELINE-RECONSTRUCTION
Reconstructs complete NHI activity timelines for forensic analysis. Ed25519-signed reports with tamper-evident hash chains and unique NHI incident identifiers.
L5
New Layer // NHI-Specific Detection
NHI Fleet & Discovery

The only platform layer dedicated entirely to NHI fleet-wide attack detection. Covers the full discovery-through-exploitation kill chain — shadow NHI identification, cloud IAM lateral movement, orchestration credential abuse, and fleet-scale exploitation patterns. No competitor covers all four.

M34 Shadow Agent Discovery
M122 NHI Fleet Exploitation Sentinel
M147 Cloud Identity Sentinel
M149 AI Orchestration Guard
DISCOVERY
M34 — Shadow Agent Discovery
Two-layer detection (signature + behavioural fingerprinting) across 34 AI providers. Discovers unsanctioned NHIs operating outside the governance perimeter. 5-tier risk classification with OAuth/SSO monitoring.
FLEET
M122 — NHI Fleet Exploitation Sentinel
Fleet-wide NHI exploitation detection — the primary defensive counterpart to T122 SPECTER GHOST. Detects mass NHI credential harvest, trust graph pivots, and LLMjacking campaigns across the full agent fleet.
CLOUD
M147 — Cloud Identity Sentinel
Cloud IAM lateral movement detection for AI deployments. Covers AWS/GCP/Azure NHI privilege escalation, IMDS credential harvest, and cross-cloud identity pivots — the highest-value NHI attack path in 2026.
ORCHESTRATION
M149 — AI Orchestration Guard
JWT trust chain validation, phantom model credential routing, and delegation cycle detection across n8n/CrewAI/Langflow/AutoGen/Flowise. Validates MCP server integrity against SHA-256 baselines.
L9
New Layer // Emerging NHI Attack Surface
API & Protocol Integrity

The emerging NHI credential exchange surface — MCP tool calls and A2A Agent Card interactions are now active attack vectors. Layer 9 secures the protocol layer where NHI credentials are negotiated, exchanged, and attested. World-first A2A NHI coverage.

M28 MCP/Tool Security Gateway
M47 A2A/Inter-Protocol Security Gateway
M103 Quantum AI Security Engine
MCP
M28 — MCP Tool Security Gateway
ETDI + OAuth 2.0 tool registration, SHA-256 metadata integrity, rug-pull detection, and schema poisoning prevention. Secures the MCP layer where NHI credentials are scoped and delegated to tools.
A2A
M47 — A2A/Inter-Protocol Gateway
A2A spec enforcement including Agent Card validation (/.well-known/agent.json), task.status.update SSE stream integrity, and agents/discover registration security. The only platform covering A2A as an NHI attack surface.
POST-QUANTUM
M103 — Quantum AI Security Engine
PQC-grade NHI credential attestation — ML-DSA-65/87 signing for agent API calls, ML-KEM-768/1024 for credential transport. Ensures every NHI-originated API call is quantum-resistant from issuance through verification. NIST FIPS 204/203 compliant.
