STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN - Axiomatics - a Leonardo Company, the leading provider of next-generation authorization solutions, today announced its inclusion in the 2026 Gartner® Reference Architecture Brief: IAM for AI Agents and Other Workloads. Axiomatics is named as an Example Technology for Authorization Management Platforms (AMP) in the report.
The emerging workload IAM reference architecture for AI agents and other workloads leverages multiple, localized workload IAM tools in AI agent platforms, infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and containers as a service (CaaS) and in on-premises environments while centralizing governance and policy management.
According to the report, “The proliferation of diverse AI agents, running on divergent platforms from personal endpoints to company-sanctioned systems, is urgently driving the need for new authorization models. AMP enables the centralized control and decentralized enforcement model for workloads deployed across different security domains.”
“AI is fundamentally reshaping how applications are built and how decisions are made, but it also elevates the existing access control problem organizations already have to a whole new level,” said David Brossard, Chief Technology Officer at Axiomatics. “Organizations need a model that combines centralized governance with decentralized, real-time enforcement to safely scale AI. That’s exactly what Axiomatics delivers — helping enterprises accelerate AI adoption without compromising control. This recognition comes at an exciting time for us as we also release our State of Authorization: AI Edition playbook, which explores these challenges and opportunities in depth.”
The Reference Architecture Brief is accessible to Gartner Subscribers via the Gartner website.
The State of Authorization: AI Edition report is available on the Axiomatics website.
