Akto Partners with Arcade.dev to Secure AI Agents in Production

AI teams are advancing beyond basic chat interfaces, implementing agents capable of interacting with internal systems and executing real actions, which necessitates enhanced controls over authorization, governance, and security. The partnership between Akto and Arcade.dev addresses these needs by combining Arcade's MCP runtime, which enables scalable deployment of multi-user agents with built-in authorization and governance, with Akto's security features that provide visibility, monitoring, and control over agent behavior. This collaboration ensures that AI agents can act safely, with Akto offering security testing, risk assessment, and real-time evaluation of tool interactions, while Arcade manages the infrastructure and execution pipeline. The integration, utilizing Arcade's Contextual Access hooks, allows Akto to evaluate tool inputs and outputs dynamically, preventing unsafe actions and ensuring secure interactions without adding operational complexity. This partnership is pivotal for teams seeking to deploy agents that are both functional and secure, bridging the gap between innovative agent capabilities and robust security measures in AI systems.
