What Zenity Does

Zenity provides security and governance for AI agents and agentic applications. Its platform helps enterprises discover agents, assess their risks, govern access and behavior, detect threats, and enforce controls from build time through runtime.

Key Strengths

  • Security designed specifically around AI-agent behavior
  • Full-lifecycle visibility and governance
  • Runtime detection and prevention of unsafe actions
  • Coverage across SaaS, cloud and endpoint environments
  • Integrations across major enterprise AI ecosystems

Why It Matters

As enterprises deploy AI agents that can access data, invoke tools and take actions, traditional application and model-level security controls leave important gaps. Zenity is building a security layer around the agent itself and the actions it takes.

Zenity at Scale

Enterprise Security

Zenity works with large enterprises, including Fortune 500 organizations, to provide visibility, governance and protection across AI agents and business-led AI development environments.

Broad Coverage

The platform covers AI agents across SaaS applications, cloud-based agent platforms and end-user environments, with integrations spanning Microsoft, AWS and other major enterprise AI ecosystems.

Security Research

Zenity Labs conducts research into emerging AI-agent threats. In 2026, its research included the PleaseFix vulnerability class affecting agentic browsers and malicious AI-agent skills distributed through public registries.
