Huntress Enhances Agentic Security Platform with Advanced Endpoint and Identity Risk Detection and Mitigation Tools
Huntress Expands Agentic Security Platform
Huntress has expanded its Agentic Security Platform with the introduction of Managed Endpoint Security Posture Management (ESPM) and Managed Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM). These new tools aim to provide end-to-end protection across endpoints, identities, and human risk by detecting, fixing, and preventing security gaps.
Developing New Tools
The company developed Managed ESPM from scratch and built Managed ISPM in under four months, leveraging expertise and capabilities from its Inside Agent acquisition in November 2025. These products enable customers to proactively address common security vulnerabilities, such as misconfigurations, excessive permissions, and unauthorized applications, within a unified platform.
Unique Approach
Unlike traditional security posture management tools that require specialized expertise and manual oversight, Huntress utilizes threat intelligence from its AI-driven security operations center (SOC) and millions of protected endpoints and identities to continuously define, deploy, and maintain security controls on behalf of customers. This approach enables organizations to reduce the number of incidents they face while maintaining a consistent, hardened security posture across environments.
“Most organizations lack a clear understanding of their security posture, particularly across endpoints. On average, one-third of workplace endpoint devices are unmanaged, and more than half of those are completely invisible and unsecured.” – Gabe Knuth, Principal Analyst at Omdia
Addressing Security Gaps
Huntress recently reported a 277% year-over-year surge in the abuse of remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools, while mailbox manipulation and OAuth abuse accounted for nearly 30% of all identity-based threats. The company’s Managed ESPM and Managed ISPM solutions aim to harden endpoints and identities against these security gaps, which are frequently exploited by cybercriminals.
Key Features
Managed ESPM allows teams to control which applications can run across endpoints, block unauthorized tools like rogue RMMs, and prioritize and remediate endpoint vulnerabilities through an integration with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. The solution also provides dashboards and out-of-the-box reports that reduce attestation time from days to minutes.
Managed ISPM applies expert-built identity policies to Microsoft 365 based on Microsoft guidance, industry standards, and real-world attacker techniques. It continuously assesses Entra ID and Conditional Access for gaps and automatically rolls back unauthorized changes within minutes before attackers can exploit them.
“Across the millions of endpoints and identities we protect, we see attackers exploiting the same security gaps over and over again. We built Managed ESPM and Managed ISPM to close those gaps before attackers can exploit them. This marks a major expansion for us, as customers now get a comprehensive agentic security platform that not only stops hackers from getting in the door but also provides industry-leading threat detection and response.” – Prakash Ramamurthy, CPO at Huntress
Proactive Security Posture Management
These new tools aim to provide organizations with a proactive approach to security posture management, enabling them to reduce the risk of common attacks and maintain a consistent security posture across environments.
