UPDATED 08:00 EDT / SEPTEMBER 29 2026 SECURITY Rig Security launches with $12M to watch AI agents that run under employees’ accounts by Duncan Riley Israeli identity security startup Rig Security Inc. Coding assistants and autonomous agents seldom sign in under an identity of their own, and whatever they do is logged against the developer or service account that launched them.

What they cannot tell, Kozliner said, is whether a person or an agent was behind it, and there is no way to stop the agent without also blocking the employee. Rig’s platform is aimed at a blind spot in how identity activity gets recorded.

A production database wiped by an agent looks, in the audit log, like the engineer’s own work. Security teams can see when an account does something dangerous. Rig said the matching is better than 96% accurate.
