The problem
status: broken

When agents slip past authorization, your blast radius is the whole stack.

AI agents and SaaS integrations interact with multiple systems, APIs, and data sources. When authorization controls are weak or inconsistently enforced, agents bypass intended restrictions, unintentionally or maliciously operating outside policy.

  • symptom
    Out-of-scope access

    Agents reach data they were never authorized to touch.

  • symptom
    Unenforced boundaries

    API and SaaS permission boundaries aren't consistently enforced.

  • symptom
    Invisible access paths

    Security teams can't see how access propagates across systems.

  • symptom
    Lateral movement

    Authorization gaps become pivot points for attackers and runaway agents.

The Wing solution
status: solved

Wing maps, detects, and enforces every authorization boundary your agents touch.

  1. 01
    MAP
    End-to-end visibility into access paths

    Wing maps how agents interact across SaaS apps, APIs, and data sources, exposing hidden access paths, where authorization can be bypassed, and how permissions propagate.

  2. 02
    DETECT
    Detect authorization gaps and violations

    Wing correlates access patterns, system integrations, and policy definitions to surface every case where agents can bypass intended restrictions.

  3. 03
    ENFORCE
    Enforce access boundaries

    Automated workflows block unauthorized access paths, restrict agents to intended resources, and continuously monitor for new bypass risks.
