Cyata becomes CSA member and signs AI Trustworthy Pledge, reinforcing commitment to industry-leading security standards for enterprise AI agents.
AI agents are already acting autonomously in enterprise environments-executing tasks, accessing sensitive data, and making decisions that impact business operations. Yet traditional security architectures weren’t designed for this new reality. IAM solutions manage human identities. EDR protects endpoints. But neither addresses the fundamental challenge of agentic identity: autonomous systems that operate across both.
Today, Cyata announces our membership in the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) and our commitment to the CSA AI Trustworthy Pledge. As the world’s leading nonprofit organization dedicated to cloud security, CSA is vendor-neutral and community-driven setting the standards that auditors, regulators, and security teams worldwide depend on. With flagship and research, CSA’s work shapes how enterprises approach security at scale.
For Cyata, this partnership represents more than membership. It’s a commitment to advancing open, vendor-neutral standards for agentic identity governance as AI agents become critical infrastructure.
As AI agents become critical infrastructure for enterprises, the need for robust agentic identity governance has never been more urgent. Cyata’s membership brings important expertise to this emerging challenge, and we’re pleased to welcome them to CSA.

Why Agentic Identity Requires a New Approach
The emergence of AI agents as autonomous actors fundamentally changes enterprise security. These aren’t tools that humans operate-they’re systems that make independent decisions about access, data handling, and business processes. The security implications extend beyond traditional perimeters.
Cyata’s control plane for agentic identity addresses this by enabling organizations to discover, explain, and control every AI agent – turning unseen risk into competitive advantage. By continuously assessing risk, mapping owners and permissions, and enforcing policies across endpoints and SaaS environments, organizations move from reactive security to proactive governance. Every agent action becomes attributable, audit-ready evidence rather than an unknown variable.
Agentic identity isn’t just the next security challenge – it’s the foundation for how enterprises will operate. Joining CSA reinforces our belief that solving this requires industry-wide collaboration, not proprietary black boxes. Open standards protect organizations while enabling innovation.

The AI Trustworthy Pledge: Building a Secure AI Ecosystem
By signing CSA’s AI Trustworthy Pledge alongside leading organizations, Cyata affirms our commitment to core principles that define responsible AI adoption: safety, transparency, ethical accountability, and privacy. These are architectural decisions embedded in how we approach agentic identity governance.
