Governing the
identities your
IAM forgot.
Arkion is the Non-Human Identity Governance platform. We provision, monitor, rotate, and revoke the identities of AI agents, machines, and autonomous systems — at enterprise scale, with cryptographic proof.
Human IAM was built
for humans.
- ·Interactive login flows
- ·Password policies
- ·MFA enrollment
- ·Role hierarchies
- ·Session timeouts
- ·No passwords. No MFA.
- ·Deployed by pipelines, not people
- ·Outnumber humans by orders of magnitude
- ·Silent expiry causes outages
- ·Orphaned identities accumulate unseen
What Arkion actually does.
Read-Only Discovery
Continuous, read-only scans build a complete governed estate of every non-human identity — agents, service accounts, certificates, keys, webhooks. Zero writes. Zero agents installed.
Certificate-Based Identity
Certificates are the only credential that is cryptographically bound, time-limited, programmatically rotatable, and instantly revocable. That is Arkion's substrate.
Lifecycle Authority
Provision, monitor, rotate, revoke. From deploy time to archival, every state transition is policy-enforced and cryptographically audit-logged.
Real-Time Risk
Every identity carries a continuously-updated risk score across overprivilege, dormancy, secret exposure, certificate validity, and blast radius. Silent expiry becomes impossible.
Machines cannot use passwords.
Every human IAM control — MFA, rotation prompts, session timeouts — assumes a person at a keyboard. Non-human identities require a different substrate.
Certificates are the only governable primitive.
Cryptographically bound, time-limited, programmatically rotatable, instantly revocable. No other credential type satisfies all four properties.
Discovery must be read-only.
A platform that writes to your infrastructure to discover identities has already failed its first trust test. Arkion never modifies the estate it governs.
Every identity needs an accountable owner.
An orphaned agent is a standing privilege with nobody responsible. Ownership mapping is not a nice-to-have — it is the precondition for governance.
