Zenity, a leading end-to-end security and governance platform for AI agents, today announced its expansion into the public sector, targeting federal, defense, and civilian agencies. The move includes new strategic partnerships with government resellers and additional deployment options tailored for agencies rapidly scaling AI adoption.
Meeting Federal AI Demand
According to the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), federal AI use cases more than doubled—from 571 in 2023 to 1,110 in 2024—highlighting the growing need for secure, auditable, and resilient AI systems. To address this, Zenity has appointed Seth Nylund as General Manager of Public Sector. Nylund brings over two decades of experience delivering transformative technologies to federal agencies.
“AI agents are becoming integral to government operations, but their adoption must be governed with transparency, control, and resilience,” said Nylund. “Zenity is uniquely positioned to help agencies secure these systems while meeting mission-critical compliance and operational goals.”
Enterprise-Grade Security for Government AI
Zenity’s platform equips public sector organizations to:
- Discover and monitor AI agents across cloud, SaaS, and endpoints
- Enforce secure-by-design policies aligned with NIST, OWASP, and MITRE standards
- Detect anomalies and prevent unauthorized access or data leaks
- Maintain audit-ready visibility and governance across AI-driven workflows
“Across the public sector, there’s a surge in demand for end-to-end security and defense-in-depth strategies,” said Ben Kliger, CEO and co-founder of Zenity. “Agencies need proactive governance, runtime enforcement, and resilient architectures to deploy AI securely. We are proud to support them in responsibly rolling out AI agents across their organizations.”
Strategic Implications
Zenity’s public sector expansion reflects a broader trend in mission-critical AI adoption: governments are increasingly relying on autonomous systems to enhance operational efficiency, decision-making, and public service delivery. By providing scalable, compliant, and auditable AI governance, Zenity positions itself as a trusted partner for agencies navigating the complexities of generative AI and autonomous agents.
