AuthMind Named a Representative Vendor With Broad Alignment in Software Analyst Cyber Research’s ARISE Report

Report identifies AuthMind as one of a small number of vendors with alignment across all three layers of ARISE model for governing AI agent actions in real time

BETHESDA, MD, UNITED STATES, September 15, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — AuthMind, the leader in identity observability-driven agentic AI threat protection, today announced it has been named a representative vendor in a new report from Software Analyst Cyber Research (SACR), an independent analyst firm covering cybersecurity markets. Of the 13 vendors profiled, SACR identified AuthMind as one with broad alignment across all three layers of ARISE.

The report, “ARISE: Agentic Runtime Identity Security Enforcement for Agents,” introduces ARISE as a new discipline focused on governing what AI agents do at the moment they act, not just who has access before an action begins. As AI agents move into production, they call tools, request credentials, query data and trigger workflows at machine speed, often faster than traditional IAM, PAM or governance tools were built to supervise. SACR frames ARISE as the runtime layer that decides, in real time, whether a given agent action should be allowed to proceed, and argues that this represents a genuinely new control plane rather than a rebranding of adjacent categories.

“Being named a representative vendor in SACR’s inaugural ARISE report is a meaningful validation of the approach we’ve taken to agentic identity security,” said Shlomi Yanai, CEO of AuthMind. “Enterprises are moving AI agents into production faster than their governance models can keep up with, and the question security teams are asking has shifted from simply knowing which agents exist to understanding, moment to moment, whether an agent’s actions are allowed and under the agent’s intent. We built AuthMind to answer that question in real time, and we’re glad to see the analyst community defining a category around exactly that problem.”

SACR’s vendor profile credits AuthMind’s coverage of shadow agent discovery, agentic identity threat detection and response, agent governance and posture management, and non-human identity and secret usage monitoring as the basis for its broad alignment across the ARISE model. AuthMind continuously observes and correlates identity activity across agentic AI, non-human identities and human users, giving security teams a single view of what these identities actually do rather than a static picture of what policy intends.
