Bitwarden has introduced a new feature called Access Intelligence, designed to help businesses address credential risks and counter AI-driven phishing threats. This product aims to streamline the process of identifying and fixing security vulnerabilities related to access credentials.
Risk Insights Dashboard
The centerpiece of Access Intelligence is the Risk Insights dashboard, which provides IT and security teams with real-time visibility into credential risks, such as weak, reused, or exposed passwords. This tool prioritizes which vulnerabilities need urgent attention based on account importance.

Instead of merely alerting users, Risk Insights guides employees through the fixing process by prompting them via the Bitwarden browser extension or email. This proactive approach is intended to bridge the gap between IT awareness and user action, as highlighted in Bitwarden's Business Insights Report.
Advanced Phishing Blocker
Another critical aspect of Access Intelligence is the Advanced Phishing Blocker. As AI-driven phishing techniques become more sophisticated, this feature offers a real-time defense mechanism. If users attempt to access a known malicious site, the Bitwarden browser extension will block access and provide an alert, effectively preventing credential compromise.
The phishing protection system relies on an open-source list of phishing domains that is continuously updated, ensuring ongoing defense against evolving threats. Future updates will also enhance insights into phishing attempts within organizations, allowing for pattern recognition and proactive measures.
Delinea Adds Ability to Secure AI Agent Identities
Delinea has expanded its platform's capabilities to secure identities and credentials specifically for AI agents. According to Phil Calvin, chief product officer for Delinea, AI agents represent a new target for cybercriminals due to the privileges granted to them.

Delinea's new offerings include a Vault AI platform for managing AI credentials, which incorporates features such as password rotation and least privilege access controls. The upcoming Discover AI tool will help cybersecurity teams identify unsanctioned AI usage, while an authorization tool will automatically enforce access policies in real-time.
As AI agents proliferate in IT environments, the management of their unique credentials will become increasingly complex and critical. Delinea emphasizes the urgency for cybersecurity teams to extend their identity access management tools to encompass these emerging identities.
