Aembit and Snowflake team up to secure AI agents’ access

Aembit has announced a new integration with Snowflake aimed at reducing identity risks associated with third-party AI agents accessing enterprise systems. This collaboration helps securely govern and audit AI agents, enhancing control over sensitive data access. Traditional security frameworks struggle with the complexities introduced by AI agents, which operate independently and may misuse access rights.

The new integration allows for clear visibility and accountability in agentic workflows by preserving user and agent identities, enforcing access policies, and eliminating long-lived credentials. Aembit's co-founder emphasized the importance of secure agentic workflows for modern enterprises, while Snowflake's security officer highlighted the need for new models of trust and visibility in securing autonomous workflows. This marks a significant step toward establishing a secure environment for deploying next-generation AI agents.
