SailPoint completes acquisition of Entro Security to secure agentic identities

While others race to add session visibility or runtime threat detection, SailPoint is the first to bring deep machine discovery and autonomous AI agents directly under enterprise-grade governance and lifecycle management

AUSTIN, Texas, June 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SailPoint, Inc. (Nasdaq: SAIL), a leader in enterprise identity security, today announced it has completed its acquisition of Tel Aviv-based Entro Security, a pioneer in non-human identity (NHI) and credentials security. Entro's NHI and credentials security solutions are available now to SailPoint customers as standalone offerings, providing immediate, deep protection across cloud and hybrid environments as native platform integration continues.

As organizations rapidly adopt AI agents, machine identities, and automated workflows, the volume of NHIs has eclipsed human identities, creating a significant new attack surface. SailPoint with Entro stands alone in its approach, offering key architectural and operational advantages that set it apart from other recent industry moves. Together, Entro’s specialized controls with SailPoint Agentic Fabric, will provide a holistic identity security solution that bridges broad human accountability with the deep, granular security required for machine and agentic identities.

Mark McClain, CEO and Founder of SailPoint commented:
"Organizations are desperate for a way to manage the risk of the autonomous AI workforce. By officially bringing Entro into the SailPoint platform today, we are closing the AI governance gap. We aren’t just giving organizations another telemetry dashboard; we are delivering a real-time, unified control plane to govern, secure, and manage the lifecycle of every single identity—human, machine, or AI agent—across their global digital footprint."

Entro’s co-founders Itzik Alvas and Adam Cheriki join SailPoint's technology organization to continue developing the next-generation capabilities of identity security and to ensure continuous leadership and innovation as Entro's technology is natively integrated into the SailPoint Platform.

Itzik Alvas, Co-Founder and CEO of Entro said:
“Entro’s capabilities together with SailPoint Agentic Fabric is a game-changer that immediately solves a massive operational pain point for security teams. Starting today, Entro's solutions are available for SailPoint customers to instantly shine a light on their unmanaged machine credentials and AI agents. We are giving organizations what they have desperately needed: a single, comprehensive command center that actively governs human, machine, and agentic identities together, stopping credential abuse and posture drift in their tracks."

This completed transaction complements the recent launch of the SailPoint Agentic Fabric, its innovative solution for discovering, governing, and securing autonomous AI agents and machine identities.

Unmatched breadth of ownership and depth of secrets: SailPoint Agentic Fabric excels at managing the overarching human accountability, succession, and broad governance of non-human identities across standard business applications. Entro complements this by operating deeply within developer environments, automatically discovering and securing over 1,200 types of granular secrets, tokens, and certificates buried inside CI/CD pipelines, codebases, and container registries. By securing these secrets, organizations can expand their agent discovery, allowing them to govern AI agents based on the specific downstream resources and tools those agents are actively using.
Holistic account context meets NHI-focused lineage: The combined solution brings together two powerful mapping capabilities. While SailPoint Agentic Fabric builds a unified identity graph that connects the dots between human users, entitlements, machines, and agents, Entro introduces a highly specific lineage map indexed directly on secret and credential usage. This combination allows security teams to trace exactly which application, script, or agent is actively utilizing a specific secret at any given moment.
From governance workflows to active runtime defense: SailPoint Agentic Fabric
delivers its powerful, workflow-driven compliance engines (such as certifications, separation of duties, and lifecycle management), while Entro introduces proactive, technical runtime security. By also leveraging their innovative NHIDR technology, Entro actively monitors token behavior to detect anomalies, intercepts malicious AI tool calls, and safeguards against prompt security threats in real-time. The inclusion of embedded Small Language Models (SLMs) intelligently recommends real-time threat remediations.
