📅 November 13, 2026 • SiliconANGLE (exclusive)
AI agent security startup Onyx Security announced an integration with Glean: the Onyx secure AI control plane extends governance and security across AI agents built and run on the Glean platform (per SiliconANGLE exclusive, November 13, 2026, plus the live Glean connector page).
Discovery first, enforcement second
The core capability is discovery: Onyx inventories every Glean agent together with the access and capabilities it holds. Teams then assign ownership, business purpose and a risk classification to each agent and map agents to governance and compliance policies (per SiliconANGLE and the Glean connector page). At runtime, the integration enforces controls on prompts, LLM responses and tool executions (per the Glean connector page).
The pitch context: enterprises are rolling out autonomous connected agents across departments faster than their security processes mature, and security teams need continuous tracking of agent access, actions and policy compliance (per SiliconANGLE and Onyx).
What the vendors say
"As agents gain greater access and autonomy, security teams need visibility and control over what they can do. By combining Glean's enterprise context with Onyx's security control plane, customers can govern agent activity consistently and confidently across their AI environment" — Gil Elbaz, Onyx co-founder and chief AI officer, who previously worked under Nvidia's CTO (per SiliconANGLE). Glean vice president of partnerships Zubin Irani said Glean regards context and governance as foundational to making enterprise AI both useful and trustworthy (per SiliconANGLE).
Follow the money
Onyx has raised 153 million dollars to date, including a 113 million dollar Series B round led by Bessemer Venture Partners in July — the company launched in March with 40 million dollars in seed and Series A funding (per SiliconANGLE). Glean last raised a 150 million dollar Series F at a 7.2 billion dollar valuation in June 2025 (per SiliconANGLE).
The Glean connector page lists benefits: reduced governance friction to move Glean deployments into production faster, centralized visibility for security teams across the broader agent ecosystem, and an automated repeatable governance process (per glean.com).
Confirmation status
Coverage so far rests on a single independent press item — SiliconANGLE — plus two vendor primaries: the Glean connector page and the Onyx platform page. Confirmations could not be found at this time.
IMPACT
For security and platform teams running Glean, agent inventory becomes a first-class artifact: every agent gets an owner, a business purpose, a risk label and mapped compliance policies, while prompts, responses and tool calls pass through enforced controls. That turns agent governance from ad hoc spreadsheets into a repeatable process — useful for audits, procurement and incident response alike.
If your agents can read company data or call internal tools, treat discovery and runtime enforcement as prerequisites before scaling agent counts beyond pilot groups, and validate that enforcement points cover every tool an agent can reach.
