Keycard Launches AI Agent Identity for Multi-Agent Apps

AI, Application Development, Automation, DevOps, Security / May 15, 2026

Keycard announced Keycard for Multi-Agent Apps, extending its platform to support delegated, session-based access control across autonomous agent systems. The product addresses a structural gap in enterprise AI governance: most multi-agent deployments still rely on shared API keys and persistent credentials that don’t limit access to what any given task requires. For ITDMs and developers building production agentic applications, purpose-built AI agent identity management is quickly moving from optional to essential infrastructure.
