News for today:
- [BeyondTrust] NHI governance added. BeyondTrust added a new solution to its Pathfinder platform for governance of non-human identities. As service accounts, API keys, OAuth clients, workload identities, and AI agents continue to proliferate across enterprise environments, NHI Governance extends the privileged access discipline BeyondTrust has applied to human access for more than two decades to the identities that now outnumber employees in nearly every organization and remain largely ungoverned. Capabilities: assign ownership, enforce least privilege, decommission non-required NHIs, and enforce security on what AI agents can / can’t do. BeyondTrust
- [Cloudflare] Content accuracy and timeliness for OpenAI. Cloudflare and OpenAI are working together to improve the accuracy and timeliness of AI search engines operating across opt-in websites. Cloudflare’s global network, which more than 20% of the web sits behind, gives it a unique vantage point into how content changes and how traffic behaves in real time. OpenAI brings frontier models, a large-scale search and answer system, and real user queries to test. Together, the companies will examine how signal-driven crawling and indexing can improve accuracy and freshness in answers. Cloudflare
- [Keeper Security] Agentic AI governance. Keeper Security extended its Endpoint Privilege Manager with governance and policy enforcement capabilities for AI agents. Keeper … enforces governance from the same installed endpoint agent that already mediates human privilege requests, observing the AI agent where it actually executes: on the machine itself. Keeper can govern what actions an agent is taking on the local device including: spawning child processes, writing directly to the filesystem, invoking a local shell, elevating privileges through the OS or accessing sensitive files.

- [Infoblox] Acquisition of Kentik. Infoblox announced the acquisition of Kentik, for its network intelligence and observability capabilities. Once added to the Infoblox toolkit, customers will gain better insight into what’s happening across their network in order to prioritize issues more effectively. The combined platform will allow customers to have a more holistic, real-time view of everything that is happening on the network and in the cloud. Infoblox knows what’s on the network and why it should be trusted; Kentik knows how traffic moves across it and whether it’s performing. The result is a pioneering infrastructure-centric network and security intelligence platform: one place where network identity, DNS context, real-time traffic behavior and AI-guided workflows converge.
