CyberArk, a global leader in identity security, announced the availability of its CyberArk Secure Cloud Access (SCA) MCP Server and CyberArk Agent Guard solutions in the new AWS Marketplace AI Agents and Tools category. This move aims to streamline the discovery, procurement, and deployment of secure AI agent solutions for customers utilizing their AWS accounts, thereby accelerating agent and agentic workflow development.
The increasing adoption of AI technologies introduces new security complexities, particularly concerning privileged access for AI agents. According to the CyberArk 2025 Identity Security Landscape report, 68 percent of organizations currently lack identity security controls specifically designed for AI. This gap often leads to challenges for security teams in maintaining adequate visibility and control across complex multi-cloud environments.
CyberArk’s solutions, offered as part of its Identity Security Platform, are designed to address these concerns by enhancing the security of agentic AI workflows. They aim to limit credential exposure and enforce tighter access controls within these dynamic environments. The SCA MCP Server is engineered to embed Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP) capabilities directly into native developer tools at speed and scale, securing access to cloud-native infrastructure and mitigating risks associated with persistent standing entitlements, credential sprawl, and unmanaged AI agents.
Key benefits of CyberArk SCA MCP Server include enforcing ZSP across multi-cloud environments, granting scoped access to AI assistants such as Amazon Q and Anthropic’s Claude with robust audit trails and role-based access control (RBAC), and enabling developers to request secure AI assistant access directly from their integrated development environments (IDE) or command line interfaces (CLI). It also implements least privilege controls for both human and machine identities within CI/CD pipelines and agentic AI workflows.
Complementing this, CyberArk Agent Guard, which is also available as an open-source tool, facilitates the secure integration of AI agents with credential providers like AWS Secrets Manager and CyberArk Secrets Manager. Agent Guard offers real-time monitoring of LLM and tool calls, generates intuitive graphs for advanced analysis, and logs tool inputs, arguments, and performance data for metadata capture. It ensures compatibility with multiple AI frameworks, populates API keys and secrets as environment variables, and supports various secret providers.
“The promise of agentic AI can be undermined by inadequate security controls, which introduce risk and increase the likelihood of a breach,” stated Peretz Regev, Chief Product Officer at CyberArk. “With SCA MCP Server and Agent Guard, organizations can implement Zero Standing Privileges to maintain more secure and scalable AI-first operations, helping to stop excessive standing access, privileges and permissions from becoming scattered through cloud environments. By offering them through AWS Marketplace, organizations will have greater access to these critical tools.”
The availability of these tools in the AWS Marketplace AI Agents and Tools category is expected to significantly accelerate the procurement process for customers pursuing AI innovation. This facilitates faster vendor evaluations and reduces negotiation complexities, while enabling centralized purchasing through AWS accounts, providing enhanced visibility and control over licensing, payments, and access.
