  • Introducing agent runtime governance: intent-based access control for AI agents

    Introducing agent runtime governance: intent-based access control for AI agents

    ·Maarten Buis
    C1's agent runtime governance routes every AI agent tool call through one governed gateway, scopes each agent to the tools its job needs, and scores every call for risk before it runs so you can block, hold, or redact it.
  • Introducing Agentic Vault: govern every secret like an identity

    Introducing Agentic Vault: govern every secret like an identity

    ·Melody Scheidler
    C1's Agentic Vault secures the credentials your people, agents, and service accounts depend on, governing every secret through the same request, approval, and audit path as any other access, with post-quantum protection from day one.
  • Introducing shadow AI discovery: find the AI you didn't sanction

    Introducing shadow AI discovery: find the AI you didn't sanction

    ·Melody Scheidler
    C1's shadow AI discovery helps security teams find unsanctioned AI tools, AI agents, MCP servers, and exposed credentials across cloud and endpoints, then assign ownership and govern them.
  • Why an MCP Gateway Is Not Governance

    Why an MCP Gateway Is Not Governance

    ·Tyrah Hicks
    C1 Field CISO Kevin Paige and SACR analyst Paul Webber on why routing agent traffic through an MCP gateway isn't the same as governing what agents are entitled to do — and what good agent governance actually requires.
  • Why AI Transformation Stalls

    Why AI Transformation Stalls

    ·Jess Starr
    AI initiatives don't stall because the models fall short—they stall at the access layer. Here's why governed AI access lets productivity and security win together.
  • The Agentic Migration Is Already Happening. The Question Is Whether You're Running It.

    The Agentic Migration Is Already Happening. The Question Is Whether You're Running It.

    ·Kevin Paige
    C1's Field CISO on running the agentic migration instead of being run by it — a three-phase methodology (Adapt, Compose, Evolve) built on the people you already have, where security is the enabler of speed rather than the brake on it.
  • C1 Deploy: Introducing C1 Bridge

    C1 Deploy: Introducing C1 Bridge

    ·Maarten Buis
    C1 Bridge extends AI Access Management to the MCP servers that run inside private networks, with no inbound firewall rules and nothing exposed to the internet.
  • C1 Launches Enterprise-Managed Authorization for MCP

    C1 Launches Enterprise-Managed Authorization for MCP

    ·Alex Bovee
    C1 now supports enterprise-managed authorization, the open MCP standard for governing how AI agents access enterprise tools.
  • Four Things Your Identity Stack Needs Before Agents Hit Production

    Four Things Your Identity Stack Needs Before Agents Hit Production

    ·Kevin Paige
    Four primitives your identity stack needs to govern AI agents in production: an identity-aware proxy, credential vaulting, scope minimization, and first-class revocation.
