SILVER SPRING, Md. – Oct. 9, 2025 – Aembit, the identity and access management platform for agentic AI, today announced it has been named the winner of the “Overall ID Management Solution of the Year” category in the 2025 CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards.
This marks the first time a company solely focused on non-human identity security has received the award, underscoring how central AI agents and workloads – and securing their access to enterprise systems and data – have become to identity management.
Now in its ninth year, the CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards honor the most innovative companies, products, and solutions across the global information security industry. Covering dozens of categories, the program is run by Tech Breakthrough and received thousands of nominations from around the world this year. Winners are selected by an independent panel of experts, who evaluate submissions based on innovation, performance, functionality, ease of use, value, and impact.
Aembit was recognized for addressing one of cybersecurity’s most urgent challenges: securing access for non-human identities – from the growing class of AI agents to more traditional applications, scripts, and microservices. These identities often depend on static credentials that can be stolen, leaked, or misused, a weakness that has been exploited in multiple high-profile breaches.
Aembit addresses this by enabling enterprises to:
- Run-Time Access Enforcement: Secures access by validating the access permissions of AI agents using the native identity of the workload and an access policy, instead of a static identity secret.
- Secretless Access Tokens: Removes the need to protect long-lived secrets and replaces them with secretless credentials delivered just-in-time.
- Zero Trust Conditional Access: Implements zero trust principles based on posture and access conditions.
- No-Code Auth-as-a-Service: Removes authentication burdens from developers, allowing them to focus on core tasks.
- Identity-Based Audit: Enhances ITDR and compliance with comprehensive logging and comprehensive audit trails.
“Identity has always been the foundation of cybersecurity, but the challenge no longer stops with people,” said David Goldschlag, co-founder and CEO of Aembit. “Agentic AI and cloud-native environments have introduced countless new identities. Without the right controls, agents and workloads become a new vector for data leakage and attacker lateral movement. This award recognizes our vision of extending IAM beyond the conventional workforce so enterprises can automate and adopt AI-driven software securely – without relying on fragile secrets or risky workarounds.”
