From standing access to zero standing privileges
AI Agent Control
Each agent gets a task-specific identity with scoped access. Intent-Based Access Control validates declared intent against actual actions and restricts access if behavior deviates from stated intent.
- Task-specific identities with no standing access
- Real-time monitoring via Intent-Based Access Control (IBAC)
- Smaller blast radius across every agentic workflow
Just-in-Time Access
Scoped access provisioned on request into cloud environments, K8s, databases, or SaaS platforms. Removed when the session ends.
- Precisely scoped permissions across environments
- Request access from Slack teams, the CLI or MCP, integrated with with ITSM tools
- Policy-based auto-approval for low-risk requests
Dynamic Guardrails
Dynamic Guardrails factor in who's requesting, what they need, and the risk of that action. Policies adapt as your environment scales.
- Business context factors into every access decision
- Risk-based enforcement across cloud, K8s, and databases
- Policies can be easily modified or augmented as your environment grows
Audit and Compliance
Every request, approval, and access event gets logged automatically. AI-generated session summaries give auditors and compliance teams instant answers.
- Compliance reporting
- Automatic Anomaly Detection for anomalous patterns
- Full business context on every access event
What sets 1Password Privileged Access apart
Purpose-built for AI agents
Every AI agent gets a task-specific identity provisioned on request and removed on completion. IBAC validates declared intent against actual API calls in real time.
Directly in the native policy layer
Permissions are directly set in cloud, database, and K8s environments. Traffic never routes through a connector or proxy.
One vendor for identity and access
1Password secures credentials for over 200,000 organizations. Privileged Access extends that trust to govern human and AI agent privileges across cloud infrastructure, databases, and K8s.
Privileged Access is part of the Unified Access Platform
The platform that discovers, secures, and audits access across every identity.
