Avistar provides managed service providers and managed security service providers with tools to discover and remediate hidden machine identities—such as service accounts, API keys, CI/CD tokens, and AI agent credentials—that are often missed in traditional access reviews. By automating inventory and remediation of these assets, Avistar helps MSPs ensure their clients meet emerging audit requirements (e.g., NIST Zero Trust, CMMC, SOC 2) and avoid insurance exclusions tied to machine‑identity breaches. The platform integrates directly into existing cloud environments to deliver continuous compliance and risk reduction.

Problem
Audits and insurance reviews focus on human identities, while service accounts, API keys, CI/CD tokens, and AI agents remain largely invisible, creating a hidden attack surface that can lead to compliance failures and breach liabilities.
Solution
Avistar provides MSPs and MSSPs with an automated platform that discovers, inventories, scores, and remediates unmanaged machine credentials across client environments. The solution continuously monitors service accounts, OAuth grants, AI agents, and other non‑human identities, mapping them to regulatory frameworks such as CMMC, SOC 2, HIPAA, and NYDFS. Identified risks are presented in a single dashboard where providers can apply fixes under their own brand, enabling clients to meet audit requirements and avoid insurance exclusions tied to machine‑related breaches.
Target Audience
Primary customers are managed service providers (MSPs) and managed security service providers (MSSPs) that deliver security and compliance services to enterprise clients.
