Enforcement Plane & Integrations

Connect Axiomatics to a few targeted applications or everywhere, across APIs, data, and AI agents, without rewriting how they work.

Secure Applications and API

Apply consistent access control at API gateways, service meshes, 3rd party apps and inside your own applications with lightweight enforcement points.

Protect Data at the Record Level

Filter and redact responses down to the cell level, so a user only ever sees the records and fields they are permitted to view.

Govern AI Agents and AI Tools

Apply the same policies and runtime checks to AI agents and non-human identities that you already apply to every human user.

Axiomatics Enforcement Plane

What Axiomatics Enforcement Plane Actually Is

Implementing enforcement means asking the Axiomatics Decision Service a question, not writing authorization logic yourself. Whether the request comes from an app, an API, a data layer, or an AI agent, every point asks that same question, keeping access consistent by design.

  • Developers integrate a simple request-and-response call, not security logic they are not equipped to maintain.
  • Security teams reduce risk, since authorization logic lives in one governed place, not copied into every app.
  • Both move faster: developers ship features instead of security code, and security teams govern one decision point.

Policy Enforcement Points 

Where dynamic authorization typically enforces, across your code and the infrastructure around it.

AI Runtime

GEAP, AWS, MCP Gateway (ContextForge), Docker, and others govern AI agents and tool calls at runtime, including MCP-based integrations and containerized AI workloads.

API Gateways

Kong, MuleSoft, Apigee, AWS, and others enforce policy at the gateway layer for every request that passes through, before it ever reaches your backend services. 

Data

Trino, Oracle, Databricks, Snowflake, and other RDBMSs & Data Lakes apply a SQL proxy or provisioning approach directly to the databases and data platforms where sensitive data lives.

In-house Developed Apps

Embed enforcement directly into the UI and applications you build yourself, choosing whichever integration method that fits how your team already works.

Enterprise Apps

SharePoint, SAP, ServiceNow, and others extend fine-grained access control into the enterprise applications you already run, to control access to customer information and support tickets.

The Technology Eco-system

A few examples of where Axiomatics could integrate, to help you map your own environment.

Proxy & API Gateway

Kong

Evaluate authorization policies on every request at the API gateway.
Proxy & API Gateway

Apigee

Call Axiomatics from Apigee API proxies to make fine-grained authorization decisions on API requests.
Proxy & API Gateway

Nginx

Use NGINX as an enforcement point that calls Axiomatics before allowing protected requests to proceed.
Proxy & API Gateway

Envoy Proxy

Use Envoy external authorization to evaluate service and API requests against Axiomatics policies.
Proxy & API Gateway

Traefik

Use Traefik request middleware as an enforcement point for Axiomatics authorization decisions.
Proxy & API Gateway

Istio

Use Axiomatics as an external authorizer for fine-grained service-to-service access in Istio.
Proxy & API Gateway

Mulesoft

Enforce Axiomatics authorization policies on APIs and services managed through MuleSoft gateways.
Proxy & API Gateway

Axway API Gateway

Apply Axiomatics policy decisions to API traffic protected and managed through Axway API Gateway.

Integrate Your Way  

How Integrations Are Done

Every enforcement point connects to the Axiomatics Decision Service however fits your application best, and you can mix and match across your architecture as needed.

REST & OpenID AuthZEN

Call the Decision Service directly over Axiomatics REST API, and/or use OpenID AuthZEN where you want a standards-based, vendor-neutral request format. 

API Gateway

Enforce policy at the gateway layer, so every request is checked before it ever reaches your backend services, with no code change inside the application itself.

Provisioning & SQL Proxy

Enforce row- and column-level policies directly at the data layer, via SQL proxy interception or native RDBMS provisioning. 

PEP SDK

Embed the Axiomatics PEP SDK directly into your application code for the tightest integration and lowest latency.

FAQs

It's the connection point between a protected system, like an application, API, or AI agent, and the Decision Service. It asks whether an action is permitted and then enforces the answer, following the PEP/Policy Decision Point (PDP) model defined in NIST SP 800-162.

Not always. Some enforcement points, like API gateways and service mesh integrations, connect out of the box. Others, especially industry-specific or custom applications, need some integration work.

It doesn't. The same policies and runtime decisions apply to AI agents and service accounts as to human users, so autonomous access gets the same scrutiny.

Yes. Beyond a simple permit or deny, enforcement points can filter which records a query returns or redact specific fields from a response before it's sent back.

SCIM and JWT for attribute and identity data, and OpenID AuthZEN for how enforcement points communicate with the Decision Service, so integrations aren't locked to a proprietary API.
