Privileged access no longer stops at people. Humans, service accounts, devices, and critical assets all need control — and so do AI agents that hold credentials, make decisions, and act on their own. Bastion makes every one of them a fully governed identity: with a clear owner, the right level of access, built-in data protection, and continuous risk monitoring.
Onboard an AI agent the same way you'd welcome a new team member. You set what it can use, how much it can spend, and a named person who's accountable for it. No agent ever runs unattended or anonymously.
| Capability | Sensitivity | Approval | Auto-expires |

An agent can hand work to a helper — but can never give away more than it has itself. Watch:
Give agents capabilities the way you'd grant permissions to staff. Everyday, low-risk actions are approved instantly; sensitive ones ask a person first. Every grant is temporary and expires on its own, so access never piles up.
Every request an agent sends to an AI model passes through Bastion first. We inspect it for secrets, personal data, and manipulation attempts before it reaches the model — and stop anything risky in its tracks. Try it below: type something sensitive and watch it get blocked.
Bastion learns what normal looks like for each agent and watches for the warning signs: manipulation attempts, unusual spikes in activity, or access from somewhere it shouldn't be. When risk climbs too high, the agent is paused automatically — its very next request is denied.
Four more capabilities that other tools make painful, or skip entirely. Each one is built right into Bastion.
Your most powerful master password is split into pieces and shared among several trusted people. Unlocking it takes a set number of them together, so one rogue insider or one stolen laptop can never open it alone. It even works offline — a true "break glass in case of emergency" path that's always there when you need it.
An outage just triggered an emergency request. Collect approvals from the key-holders:
A lightweight connector sits inside your network and reaches out to Bastion — so there's nothing to expose, no holes to poke in your firewall, and no VPN to manage. Bastion then routes every session to the right system automatically, whether it's a server, desktop, or database.
Someone changes a managed account's password directly on a system — maybe a rushed admin, a stray script, or an attacker trying to dig in. Bastion notices the moment the password no longer matches, rates how serious it is, and emails the owner (plus anyone else you choose) before it turns into an outage or an incident.
Other tools make you file a request and wait months for support for a new kind of device. With Bastion you simply describe how a device changes and checks its password, and it becomes a fully supported connection in seconds. No coding, no upgrade, no waiting.
Bring one agent and we'll show you the rest: we'll give it an identity, set its access, run its requests through data protection, and watch a secret get blocked — all in minutes.
