As companies deploy AI agents alongside their engineering teams, leaders lose the one thing they need most: an objective view of what is actually getting delivered. Pensero scores every unit of work on the same scale, whether it was human, AI-assisted or agent-only, then shows where each one creates value. That gives you agent performance, cost per unit of work, and agentic transformation, monitored live. Customers call it story points after the fact: an objective measure of what was delivered, comparable across teams, technologies, and any mix of humans and agents. No commits, no hours, no lines of code, no agent activity. Every agent, assistant and human lands in one system of record. Repositories, tickets, chat and AI tools connect automatically, with no instrumentation project and no workflow change. Leaders decide what stays human-led, what gets augmented, and what can be delegated to agents, then optimize that balance against delivery, quality, cost, and business impact. Agent budgets are approved on promise today. Pensero turns them into a portfolio with a return. 3 Ratings Visit Website Safetica Safetica delivers Intelligent Data Security.

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.	About The Teleport Infrastructure Identity Platform modernizes identity, access, and policy for infrastructure, for both human and non-human identities, improving engineering velocity and resiliency of critical infrastructure against human factors and/or compromise. Teleport is purpose-built for infrastructure use cases and implements trusted computing at scale, with unified cryptographic identities for humans, machines and workloads, endpoints, infrastructure assets, and AI agents. Our identity-everywhere approach vertically integrates access management, zero trust networking, identity governance, and identity security into a single platform, eliminating overhead and operational silos.
