CrowdStrike, has announced a new integration with the OpenAI ChatGPT Enterprise Compliance API, aimed at enhancing visibility and governance for AI agents that are rapidly transforming modern workflows. The enhancement, delivered through CrowdStrike Falcon® Shield, now enables the discovery of GPTs and Codex agents within OpenAI’s ChatGPT Enterprise, extending its coverage to over 175 SaaS applications. Positioned as a leading cybersecurity innovator in the AI era, CrowdStrike is helping organizations reinforce security governance over both AI agent identities and the human users behind them.
The adoption of agentic AI to automate operations at scale is fueling a surge in autonomous agents within SaaS ecosystems. However, many organizations lack comprehensive insight into how these agents operate, which systems and data they can access, and who is responsible for their creation. These non-human identities often hold persistent privileges and can become security liabilities if a linked human identity is compromised—potentially allowing attackers to steal sensitive data, alter systems, or move laterally across critical applications. By increasing identity volumes, broadening access, and amplifying the potential impact of a breach, these agents are reshaping the threat landscape.

With its new ChatGPT Enterprise integration, Falcon Shield delivers governance for this emerging AI automation layer. The solution maps each AI agent to its human creator, flags potentially risky behaviors, and supports real-time policy enforcement. When paired with Falcon® Identity Protection, the platform offers unified visibility and defense for both human and non-human identities, improving oversight and reducing security gaps.
“AI agents are evolving into powerful, superhuman identities capable of accessing systems, initiating workflows, and operating at machine speed,” said Elia Zaitsev, CrowdStrike’s Chief Technology Officer. “As their presence grows across SaaS environments, they redefine the attack surface—and their security is only as strong as the human identities connected to them. Falcon Shield and Falcon Identity Protection secure this emerging identity layer to stop exploitation before it happens.”
Falcon Shield’s AI Agent Security Capabilities Include:
Comprehensive AI Agent Discovery: Identifies GPTs, Codex agents, and other embedded AI tools across platforms such as ChatGPT Enterprise, Microsoft 365, Snowflake, and Salesforce, providing expanded visibility for security teams.

Human-to-Agent Mapping: Associates each AI agent with its human owner, enabling accountability, contextual privilege governance, and enhanced identity protection through Falcon Identity Protection.
Risk Behavior Detection: Highlights overprivileged agents, GPTs with sensitive capabilities, and unusual activity patterns by analyzing identity, application, and data interactions.
Automated Threat Containment: Leverages Falcon® Fusion, CrowdStrike’s no-code SOAR engine, to execute automated actions—such as blocking risky access, disabling compromised agents, and initiating response workflows—to neutralize threats quickly.
Unified AI Agent Security: Integrates Falcon Shield, Falcon Identity Protection, and Falcon® Cloud Security to deliver complete visibility and control over AI agent activities, from creator identity to the cloud resources they can reach.
With these enhancements, CrowdStrike is positioning itself at the forefront of AI-driven identity protection, ensuring that the next generation of automated agents operate securely within complex SaaS environments.
