Zero-trust cybersecurity company Xage Security Inc. today announced the integration of the Xage Fabric Platform with the Nvidia BlueField data processing unit to deliver advanced security controls for AI factories and critical infrastructure.
With the integration, Xage will scale identity-based access controls across massive data centers and mission-critical environments, ensuring exceptional performance and resilience.
The integration seeks to assist with agentic artificial intelligence systems that rely on autonomous agents that collaborate with other agents, models and application programming interfaces to make decisions and take action. Xage’s dynamic access control integration of Nvidia BlueField provides a software-defined, hardware-accelerated foundation to govern and enforce data flows between agents and models in real time.
Xage applies least-privilege controls at every step of these interactions to govern which agents can access specific data, pipelines or models and also the exact actions agents can perform and for how long. Organizations can prevent unauthorized privilege escalation and data leakage with role-based segmentation running at line speed on BlueField. They can also enforce policy-based privilege de-escalation to block risky actions and thus ensure that AI agents remain trustworthy and compliant as they scale up and evolve.
The company delivers definitive, resilient controls that are enforced even as AI systems self-modify or generate new behaviors to allow enterprises to unlock the full productivity and potential of agentic AI without exposing themselves to undue risk, even in the most complex, autonomous environments.
Xage also enforces secure separation of AI workloads and, in doing so, prevents lateral movement and safeguards datasets, workloads and models. With the implementation directly on the BlueField DPU, Xage’s identity-based segmentation operates at line speed to deliver low-latency, high-efficiency security that reduces the attack surface without sacrificing performance.
“As AI factories emerge as the foundational infrastructure accelerating AI innovation, safeguarding them has become a critical priority,” said Ofir Arkin, senior distinguished architect for cybersecurity at Nvidia. “Together, Nvidia BlueField and Xage’s zero-trust security enable organizations to modernize their protection strategies across AI factories and infrastructure — driving secure, scalable innovation forward.”
Xage added that by running on Nvidia BlueField, it brings hardware-accelerated zero-trust enforcement to the most demanding environments. That includes data centers and critical infrastructure in sectors such as energy, manufacturing, utilities and transportation, where millions of assets and billions of data flows must be secured in real time.
The integration makes it possible to govern and enforce access to assets and data at an unprecedented scale, preventing unauthorized activity and containing threats before they can disrupt essential services.
Xage is demonstrating its integration with BlueField at the Nvidia GTC Conference in Washington, D.C., through Oct. 29.
