# RSA Security Extends Identity Management Reach to AI Agents

**[Security Boulevard](https://daily.dev/sources/securityboulevard)** · 4 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

RSA Security launched RSA Agent ID, an extension of its Unified Identity Platform aimed at discovering, securing, and governing AI agents and MCP servers. The Discover module inventories agents with ownership, risk tier, and lifecycle data; the Secure module enforces policies via an AI/MCP gateway and revokes access on decommissioning; a Govern module is planned for H1 2027 to certify and audit agents against 10 industry frameworks, with a full air-gapped self-managed version also planned for 2027. RSA's Jim Taylor frames AI agents as non-human identities that pose insider-threat-like risks since they operate continuously and may bypass embedded guardrails.

## Questions this post answers

### What is RSA Agent ID and what does it do?

RSA Agent ID is an extension of the RSA Unified Identity Platform that discovers, secures, and governs AI agents and MCP servers. Its Discover module builds a registry with owner, risk tier, and lifecycle state for each agent; its Secure module enforces policies via an AI/MCP gateway on every agent or tool call and revokes access when an agent is decommissioned.

_Teams standardizing on identity controls for AI agents can follow platform updates like this on daily.dev._

### When is the RSA Agent ID Govern module expected to be available?

The Govern module is planned for release in the first half of 2027. It will certify and review AI agents the way organizations govern human users, recording every governed action and mapping it to 10 industry frameworks for streaming into a SIEM platform. A fully air-gapped, self-managed version of RSA Agent ID is also planned for 2027.

_Security teams planning agentic AI governance timelines can track releases like this on daily.dev._
