Summary

Reco, a SaaS security platform, launched "Reco AI Agent Security" on March 18 to address "agent sprawl," the problem of autonomous AI agents (like Copilot and ChatGPT integrations) accessing sensitive data and taking actions across multiple systems without human oversight. The new tool gives security teams visibility and control over these AI agents by using behavior-based detection (analyzing API call patterns and workflow signatures) instead of traditional connection-based methods, identifying risks like agents with excessive permissions or misconfigured access to customer data.

Solution / Mitigation

Reco AI Agent Security is explicitly designed as the mitigation. According to the source, the offering provides: (1) AI agent discovery through multi-layered detection that analyzes API call patterns and service account activity to identify autonomous behavior; (2) risk analysis by correlating activity across applications and recognizing workflow signatures of automation tools like n8n, Zapier, and Make; and (3) governance and control over all AI agents operating in the SaaS ecosystem. The platform tracks OAuth connections, analyzes decision-making patterns that indicate autonomous action, and monitors cross-application activity to identify agents that traditional SSPM tools miss.
