One signal

Infisical, a company that helps businesses keep private credentials from AI agents, has raised a $40 million Series B at a $600 million valuation, according to Forbes. The round was led by Elad Gil.

That puts funding behind a concrete AI security problem: agents need access to company systems, but handing them credentials can expose sensitive accounts. Infisical’s approach is aimed at letting companies use agents without giving them those secrets outright. The funding is a useful signal of demand for tools around agent access, though the supplied report excerpt does not explain how Infisical’s technology works or name its other investors.

Discuss: Is keeping credentials away from agents enough, or should companies focus on limiting what agents can do once connected?
