Zenity secures ChatGPT Enterprise use with expanded AI oversight

Today

Zenity has announced the expansion of its AI agent security and governance platform with integration for ChatGPT Enterprise.

The integration allows organisations using ChatGPT Enterprise to secure and govern the adoption, development, and usage of AI agents within the platform through the OpenAI ChatGPT Enterprise Compliance API.

Zenity's platform now provides security teams with oversight not only for ChatGPT's existing collaborative features, such as knowledge file uploads and Canvas, but also for the custom AI agents created by employees. The growing use of ChatGPT Enterprise in enterprise workflows is prompting new security considerations as users build, host, and collaborate with bespoke GPTs that may access sensitive data.

Over 80% of Fortune 500 companies have adopted ChatGPT Enterprise within the nine months since its launch, according to Zenity. As these organisations expand their use of agentic AI, security teams are increasingly tasked with maintaining visibility, control, and compliance across a wider range of activities.

Zenity's approach centres on agent-level security, focusing on what each AI agent is designed and permitted to do, the data it accesses, the identities it adopts, and its communications with other agents in an organisation.

The integration with the ChatGPT Enterprise Compliance API allows Zenity's platform to provide continuous observability of custom GPTs, Canvas documents, tools, knowledge files, and user interactions across the enterprise environment.

Security measures are enforced from the initial stages of agent development. Zenity's policy enforcement, identity controls, and its AI Security Posture Management (AISPM) capability enable discovery of vulnerabilities, excessive permissions, and hardcoded secrets during GPT creation.

Ongoing threat detection is supported by Zenity's behaviour-based engine. The platform can identify threats such as prompt injection, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) poisoning, data exposure, and unauthorised actions using its AI Detection & Response (AIDR) system.

Zenity also provides automated policy enforcement and allows security teams to remediate risks at scale using actions such as deleting risky agents, files, or conversations through its click-to-fix options.

The entire AI agent lifecycle, from build time to runtime, falls under the platform's governance. Zenity's integration aims to balance robust security with business agility for organisations advancing their use of AI.

Commenting on the announcement, Ben Kliger, Co-Founder and CEO of Zenity, said: "Adoption of ChatGPT Enterprise is accelerating, and with it comes a new responsibility for security teams to guide its safe, effective use across the organization. This integration with the ChatGPT Enterprise Compliance API is an important step forward in helping security leaders manage risk without slowing innovation. Securing AI Agents for some of the largest enterprises in the world, we are proud to expand our capabilities as the first and only end-to-end platform, spanning buildtime to runtime across environments, to help define AI Agent security and governance experiences for ChatGPT Enterprise users, and provide the foundation security teams need to lead innovation in their organizations with confidence."

Zenity's extension of capabilities arrives as industry analysts highlight autonomous AI—agentic AI— as a significant trend affecting workplaces by 2025, with a predicted increase in routine decision-making handled by AI agents. Security firms such as Zenity are responding to this trend by offering solutions that allow companies to capitalise on the efficiency gains of AI while managing associated risks.
