Identity provider (IdP)
The system that issues and manages identities. Highflame extends your existing IdP to agents rather than replacing it.
Part of the Agent Control Fabric: Highflame's identity, policy, and enforcement substrate for AI agents.
Keep exploring the glossary.
Inline enforcement
Evaluating and deciding on an action before it executes, out-of-band and fail-closed, rather than detecting it after the fact.
Read →Just-in-time (JIT) access
Issuing short-lived, task-scoped credentials on demand that expire when the work is done: eliminating standing access there's nothing to leak or over-grant.
Read →MCP (Model Context Protocol)
An open protocol that connects agents to external tools and data. Powerful for capability. But every connection is a new access path that has to be governed.
Read →MCP Gateway
A governed checkpoint every tool connection passes through (authenticated, policy-checked, and logged) so credentials stay central and unapproved servers can't connect.
Read →Mission drift
When a non-deterministic agent gradually diverges from its intended task. Tracked at runtime so it can be contained before consequences land.
Read →Non-human identity (NHI)
Identities belonging to machines, services, and agents rather than people. Agents are the fastest-growing and least-governed class of NHI.
