SailPoint intends to acquire Entro to enrich its Agentic Fabric solution

SailPoint, Inc., a leader in enterprise identity security, announced its intent to acquire Entro, a pioneer in non-human identity (NHI) and credentials security, to mark a strategic expansion and acceleration of the recently launched SailPoint Agentic Fabric—advancing SailPoint's vision to secure the modern enterprise with adaptive identity security across the entire digital ecosystem.

By integrating Entro’s specialized capabilities to directly address the unique challenges of the AI era, SailPoint expects to further expand how customers easily identify, govern, and protect high-risk assets from a single, unified platform, according to SailPoint.

"The recent launch of our Agentic Fabric established a new paradigm for securing autonomous AI agents and non-human identities at scale, including native discovery, governance and protection. By bringing Entro’s powerful and complimentary technology into our SailPoint platform, we will be giving our customers an even bigger advantage: frictionless, complete visibility into every non-human identity and—crucially—the context and credentials they use to access critical corporate data,” said Mark McClain, CEO and founder of SailPoint.

Upon closing, Entro will provide additive and highly complementary technology features that SailPoint plans to integrate with Agentic Fabric, including:

• Unrivaled discovery and credentials coverage: Entro provides frictionless, agentless visibility into the specific tools, APIs, and credentials that AI agents and machine identities use to execute tasks.
• Deep context and human ownership attribution: Complementing SailPoint’s native identity intelligence, Entro enriches discovered data with metadata to map exact relationships, permissions, usage, and "blast radius."
• Real-time detection and active protection: With proprietary Non-Human Identity Detection and Response (NHIDR) capabilities, SailPoint customers will be able to continuously monitor AI agents and machine identities for behavioral anomalies in real time, allowing organizations to expose over-privileged access, enforce least privilege, and automate threat mitigation at machine speed.

These capabilities directly address the top security, privacy, and compliance risks that IT and business leaders face when deploying AI agents.

After the deal closes, SailPoint customers will enjoy an even broader level of visibility, ownership attribution, and control—transforming identity from a static compliance measure into a dynamic, real-time enabler of their enterprise success, the company said.

"We built Entro with a clear mission: to secure the modern cloud by discovering and protecting the sheer volume of credentials and non-human identities powering it. As enterprises embrace more automation and agentic workloads, this massive identity layer is only becoming more critical to protect. We are excited to integrate our deep, seamless discovery and lineage mapping engine into SailPoint's comprehensive identity security framework and Agentic Fabric. I believe that together, our combined non-human and AI capabilities will supercharge SailPoint's proven ability to secure every identity, human and non-human, across the global enterprise landscape,” said Itzik Alvas, co-founder and CEO of Entro.

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the third quarter of fiscal year 2027.
