Microsoft Entra Agent ID:
About
Microsoft Entra Agent ID provides identity management and access controls for AI agents operating in an organization. IT and identity teams can create agent identity blueprints, issue identities to individual agents, assign owners and sponsors, and manage agent lifecycles and permissions. The platform is available to Microsoft Entra customers and supports OAuth 2.0, agent-to-agent communication, and Microsoft Graph APIs for programmatic provisioning and management. Organizations can connect agents built on Microsoft and third-party platforms, including AWS Bedrock and n8n. Extending Microsoft Entra security features to agents, including Conditional Access, governance, and risk controls, requires a Microsoft Agent 365 license; Agent 365 is included with Microsoft 365 E7. The service serves organizations building or deploying AI agents that need identity, access, and governance controls.

Quest Identity Defense:
About
Quest Identity Defense, formerly Security Guardian, is an agentic AI-powered identity security solution for protecting hybrid Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID environments. The platform continuously monitors human and non-human identities to identify risks, anomalous behavior, privilege exposures, and vulnerabilities involving critical Tier 0 assets. Identity posture management benchmarks AD and Entra ID configurations against industry best practices and provides remediation guidance for discovered security weaknesses. Proactive object protection prevents unauthorized or risky changes to critical objects, while Shields Up and agentic AI capabilities can automatically contain active attacks and block lateral movement. Deep monitoring and human-readable auditing provide information about who changed an identity asset, what was changed, when and where the change occurred, and which workstation was involved.
