Keycard is an advanced identity and access management platform tailored for the era of agent-driven technology, facilitating secure connections among AI agents, users, services, and APIs through real-time identity controls driven by policies. Instead of relying on static secrets, it generates dynamic, short-lived access tokens and accommodates federated identity systems to unify users, agents, and workloads within a decentralized authorization structure. Developers can leverage convenient SDKs compatible with popular frameworks, enabling them to create applications aware of agents without needing extensive IAM knowledge. The platform’s data architecture encompasses identity-validated agents, tasks, tools, and resources, which facilitate the establishment of logical zones equipped with permissions that are context-aware and subject to auditing. Additionally, security teams have the capability to formulate deterministic, task-oriented policies that clarify who (whether a user or agent) is permitted to perform certain tasks on specific resources under designated conditions, ensuring complete transparency in access control. This comprehensive approach not only enhances security but also improves operational efficiency across various systems.
