Linx Newsroom

As organizations rapidly deploy Claude across teams and workflows, security and compliance teams have faced a fundamental blind spot: they have had no way to see who holds access to Claude, what level of privilege they carry, which API keys exist, or what resources and projects are being shared. Until now, what happened inside those AI interactions has remained largely invisible to the identity and security teams responsible for managing access risk.

The Linx integration based on the new Claude compliance API, powered by Anthropic, changes that. Claude governance lives natively inside the Linx platform, alongside every other application in the enterprise. For security leaders, that means Claude is no longer an ungoverned blind spot in the identity estate: it carries the same visibility, audit trail, and access controls as every other application their teams are responsible for securing.

"Claude has become a critical enterprise application almost overnight, but without the identity governance controls that organizations apply to everything else in their stack," said Israel Duanis, CEO and Co-Founder at Linx. "You can see who has access to Salesforce. You can see who holds admin keys in your cloud infrastructure. You should be able to see the same for Claude. This integration makes that possible, and it does it the right way: not as a standalone tool, but as part of the same identity fabric our customers already use to govern every identity in their environment."

Governing Claude

Once connected, Claude becomes a fully governed application in Linx. Identity teams can now:

See accounts, roles, and permissions in Claude — A complete view of all accounts provisioned in Claude, the roles assigned to them, and the groups they belong to. Teams can filter directly to administrative roles and drill into the specific permissions each role carries, making it easy to identify over-provisioned access at a glance.

Review and certify access with Linx AI-powered recommendations — Launch access certification campaigns scoped specifically to Claude, reviewing who has access and what entitlements they hold. Linx surfaces recommendations powered by Anthropic's own models to help reviewers decide whether each access grant should be approved or denied, accelerating certification cycles without sacrificing rigor.

Identify and associate API keys — Full visibility into API keys created within Claude, including when each key was created and associated metadata, giving security teams the audit trail they need to detect stale or unmanaged keys.

Govern projects and resources — Monitorthe specific projects and shared resources within Claude, with an access graph for each project that maps exactly how access is provisioned: which roles exist, which users hold them, and how they connect.

"What makes this integration stand out is that access review recommendations are powered by Anthropic's own models. You're not just getting visibility into who has access to Claude — you're getting intelligent guidance on whether that access is appropriate," said Niv Goldenberg, CPO & Co-Founder at Linx. "Combining Linx's identity governance with Anthropic's AI to make faster, smarter certification decisions is exactly the kind of integration that moves enterprises from checkbox compliance to continuous, intelligent governance."

NEW YORK, NY – June 9, 2026 – Identity security company Linx Security has announced the general availability of Linx Agentic Access Control, a real-time enforcement layer that gives security and identity teams granular oversight of every action carried out through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — whether that action is initiated by a person, a non-human identity, or an autonomous AI agent. The announcement was distributed via PR Newswire.

The release extends Linx's existing unified identity platform — which already governs human and non-human identities — directly into the agentic layer. As the company explains, AI agents have moved beyond simply surfacing information and are now taking real actions inside business-critical systems: reading records, writing data, querying databases, and calling APIs. Conventional access controls weren't built to inspect or enforce policy on that kind of MCP traffic, and because those actions often don't appear in downstream application logs, security teams are left without visibility, without a way to allow or block actions at machine speed, and without an auditable record.

The announcement cites supporting data, noting that McKinsey's 2026 AI Trust Maturity Survey found nearly two-thirds of organizations point to security and risk as the top barrier to scaling agentic AI, with active mitigation trailing awareness. It also references NSA guidance on real-world MCP security risks, which recommends that access to tools touching sensitive or regulated data be explicitly controlled and segregated.

Per the release, Linx Agentic Access Control is built on an MCP Gateway that sits inline between AI platforms and the applications they reach, so every tool call is checked before it runs. The company highlights three core capabilities: tool-level enforcement that controls which specific read, write, and admin tools an agent can invoke; inline, real-time adjudication that approves or blocks each call before execution; and full audit logging that timestamps every action and ties it to the responsible identity. Linx frames its unified-identity approach — governing humans, non-human identities, and agents under one policy — as the key differentiator versus point solutions that handle agents in isolation.

The release includes commentary from Co-Founder and CPO Niv Goldenberg and VP Product Dor Renert, and notes the product is available now to Linx Security customers.

NEW YORK, NY – June 9, 2026 – Identity security firm Linx Security has unveiled a new platform aimed at giving organizations real-time oversight of the autonomous AI agents now operating inside their systems, according to reporting from BriefGlance.com.

The product, called Linx Agentic Access Control, functions as an enforcement layer for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — the increasingly common standard that lets AI systems connect to and act on business tools. As covered in the article, AI agents have moved well past simple chatbot duties and are now reading records, writing data, querying databases, and calling APIs within critical enterprise environments. Traditional access controls, built for human users and predictable machine identities, were never designed to monitor that kind of activity, creating what the piece describes as a governance vacuum.

The report points to mounting concern across the industry. A 2026 McKinsey survey found that roughly two-thirds of organizations name security and risk as the main obstacle to scaling agentic AI. The National Security Agency also issued guidance in May 2026 flagging risks tied to MCP, including uncontrolled automated actions and context poisoning, and recommended tighter controls around tools that touch sensitive data.

According to the coverage, Linx's approach routes every action an agent attempts through an inline MCP gateway, where it is inspected and either approved or blocked before execution. The platform offers tool-level permission controls, real-time adjudication, and full audit logging — capturing and timestamping every action and tying it back to the originating identity. Notably, Linx integrates these capabilities into its broader unified identity platform rather than treating AI agents as a standalone problem, which the article frames as a key differentiator against legacy IAM vendors.

The piece, written by Matthew Richardson for BriefGlance.com, also situates the launch against a backdrop of tightening global regulation — including the EU AI Act, GDPR, and sector-specific mandates — where the ability to produce a complete audit trail of agent activity is becoming a compliance necessity rather than a nice-to-have.

NEW YORK, March 31, 2026 - Linx Security, a pioneer in modern identity security and governance solutions, today announced a $50 million Series B financing round led by global software investor Insight Partners, with continued participation from Cyberstarts and Index Ventures. This brings Linx’s total funding to $83 million. The 100-person startup has already signed multimillion-dollar contracts with banks, healthcare companies, and Fortune 500 firms, governing millions of identities globally.

As enterprises adopt cloud, automation, and AI, the number of identities inside organizations has exploded, now spanning not just employees, but machines, services, and AI agents, which outnumber humans by roughly 80 to 1. Traditional identity governance tools, built for a smaller and more static environment, have struggled to keep up, leaving security teams with limited visibility, slower response times, and expanding risk at a time when nearly 90% of security incidents involve identity-related failures.

Founded in 2023 by cybersecurity veterans Israel Duanis and Niv Goldenberg, the company provides an AI-native platform that continuously maps, monitors, and governs all identities across the enterprise, human, non-human, and agents alike. By replacing manual processes and periodic reviews with real-time detection and automated remediation, Linx enables organizations to reduce identity risk without slowing down the business.

“Identity governance has shifted from a back-office compliance function to a core pillar of enterprise security,” said Israel Duanis, CEO and co-founder of Linx Security. “This funding allows us to scale faster and meet the growing demand from organizations that need real-time visibility and control over every kind of identity operating in their environment.”

Linx recently introduced Linx Autopilot, the first autonomous AI agent designed to fundamentally change how identity governance is managed. Moving away from the constraints of manual oversight and reactive processes, Autopilot continuously monitors identity activity, detects meaningful changes in real time, and takes action, either resolving issues automatically or escalating when needed. By operating across human, machine, and agents, it enables security teams to move from periodic control to continuous, intelligent enforcement, without adding operational overhead.

The new funding will support Linx’s next phase of growth, including expanding its global footprint, scaling enterprise go-to-market efforts, and accelerating product development around autonomous identity governance.

"Linx is reimagining IGA architecture to tackle the emerging problem of agent governance. The company’s AI-first approach, along with the introduction of Linx Autopilot, well positions Linx in this critical category and we're thrilled to partner on this journey,” said Teddie Wardi, Managing Director at Insight Partners.

"We backed Linx at inception because we believe identity would become the core control layer of modern security,” said Gili Raanan, Founding Partner at Cyberstarts. “AI agents are rapidly expanding the number of identities operating inside organizations, turning identity governance from a back-office compliance task into a board-level risk. Linx is building the platform to govern that new reality.”
