New York, United States — October 7, 2025 — Leads & Copy — Sonrai Security has launched WALLy, an AI security agent designed to address excessive privileged access in the cloud. WALLy is designed to fix privilege risk by automatically removing unnecessary privileges, enforcing just-in-time (JIT) access, and blocking risky privileges across humans, machines, AI agents, and third parties. Each action is staged for approval, protected by guardrails, and fully audited.
Brendan Hannigan, CEO and co-founder of Sonrai Security, noted that the challenge in cloud security lies in fixing risks without disrupting operations. WALLy uses natural language queries and real-time privilege intelligence to provide clear answers and ensure safe privilege security in the cloud.
WALLy’s capabilities include removing ransomware privilege risk in production environments, quarantining unused identities in staging, and eliminating unused privileges for AI agents across all accounts. Unlike other AI chatbots, WALLy is tailored for Cloud IAM and Cloud PAM, distinguishing critical privilege risk from expected use and providing plain-English summaries of proposed changes.
Brendan Putek, Director of DevOps at Relay Network, highlighted the balance required in least privilege policies. WALLy aims to alleviate this burden by providing strong security policies without hindering development.
WALLy integrates with Sonrai’s Cloud Permissions Firewall, using native IAM controls (AWS SCPs, GCP/Azure org policies) and enterprise AI ecosystems to ensure compliance and governance. WALLy is currently in beta and will be available in Q4 for Sonrai Cloud Permissions Firewall customers. Learn more at www.sonraisecurity.com/wally.
