# Agentic Identity Control

## Overview

Agentic Identity Control introduces Agents that interact with enterprise systems, APIs, data, and users. These agents require consistent, context-aware authorization to ensure their actions align with organizational security and governance policies.

The **PlainID Platform** enables organizations to model AI agents as **Identities** within the **Identities Workspace (formerly Identity Workspace)**, using **Identity Attributes**, **Dynamic Groups**, and centralized **Policy** management. The Platform governs humans, non-human identities, and AI agents under one policy model.

With centralized **Policy** definition and distributed enforcement, organizations can securely support agent-driven workflows, fine-grained data access, API authorization, and cross-domain orchestration across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

By embedding authorization directly into agent execution paths, PlainID enables secure, scalable, and governable adoption of agentic AI across the enterprise.

Agentic Identity Control Tailored Capabilities

Note that Agentic Identity Control is a specialized platform within PlainID, offering a tailored set of capabilities that go beyond the PlainID Platform to support AI-driven operations.

## Capabilities

**Discover** Discover registered agents from supported platforms to provide centralized visibility. See [Agent Discovery](/v1/docs/ai-agent-integration).

**Manage** An authoritative inventory and metadata control plane for AI agents enables registration, identification, classification, discovery, verification, and lifecycle governance. See [Agent Registry](/v1/docs/agent-registry).

**Authorize** Enrich agent registry entries with ownership, environment, connected systems, risk indicators, and business purpose. See [Agent Profile Enrichment](/v1/docs/attribute-enrichment). To start, refer to the [Onboarding](/v1/docs/onboarding) documentation.
