Varonis Extends Atlas to the Browser and Endpoint, Adds AI Gateway

· Issued by Varonis Systems, Inc. via GlobeNewswire

Summary by 6ix AI

Varonis Systems, Inc., a data and AI security company, added three capabilities to Varonis Atlas on November 9, 2026: Browser Protection, Endpoint Protection and an AI Gateway, which it says are available now. Varonis says Atlas helps security teams find and govern AI apps, agents and models across the browser, endpoint, cloud, apps and code.

Key details

  • Browser Protection: Varonis says it finds AI use in the browser, including personal accounts and unapproved apps, and blocks unapproved AI sites. Varonis says it also applies data-aware guardrails to prompts, responses and attachments through what it describes as a lightweight browser extension.
  • Endpoint Protection: Varonis says it finds AI apps, coding agents such as Claude Code, local model files and MCP servers (which link AI to tools and data) on laptops and desktops. It uses the Varonis endpoint sensor or integrates with CrowdStrike, SentinelOne and Microsoft Defender.
  • AI Gateway: a gateway placed in front of AI traffic to large language models (LLMs) and MCP servers. Varonis says teams can route requests across model providers, cap token spending and enforce guardrails on prompts, responses and the tools agents call.
  • Varonis also expanded Atlas Agent Intent with a new Agent Manifest that, according to Varonis, defines what each agent is for. Varonis says Atlas uses intent-based access control (IBAC) to step in when an agent drifts from that purpose.
  • Varonis says Atlas links AI activity to the Varonis Data Security Platform so security teams can see and control access to sensitive data.

MIAMI, Nov. 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Varonis Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRNS), the data and AI security leader, today announced three new capabilities for Varonis Atlas: Browser Protection, Endpoint Protection, and an AI Gateway. These new capabilities add coverage where employees use AI every day and where AI connects to models, tools, and data.

Security teams need to discover and govern AI apps, agents, and models whether they’re sanctioned or not. They need to do it across the browser, endpoint, cloud, apps, and code. Stitching together point solutions is costly, inconsistent, and leaves gaps.

Atlas secures the full AI lifecycle with a consistent set of policies that work wherever you build or run your agents and models. It also links AI activity to the Varonis Data Security Platform, so security teams can see and control sensitive data access.

New capabilities in Varonis Atlas include:

  • Browser Protection: Finds AI use in the browser, including personal accounts and unsanctioned apps. Blocks unsanctioned AI sites and applies data-aware guardrails to prompts, responses, and attachments via a lightweight browser extension.
  • Endpoint Protection: Finds AI apps, coding agents like Claude Code, local model files, and MCP servers on laptops and desktops. Use the Varonis endpoint sensor or integrate with CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and Microsoft Defender.
  • AI Gateway: Puts an LLM and MCP gateway in front of your AI traffic. Teams can route requests across model providers, cap token spend, and enforce guardrails on prompts, responses, and the tools agents call.

Varonis also expanded Atlas Agent Intent with a new Agent Manifest that defines what each agent is for. Atlas uses intent-based access control (IBAC) to step in when an agent drifts from that purpose.

"You can't control AI you can't see, and you can't see AI by watching one touchpoint at a time," said Ron Bennatan, VP of AI and Data Security Strategy at Varonis. "Atlas shows security teams the AI tools, agents, and token use across the business, and lets them stop an agent action when it goes beyond its guardrails. Companies can say yes to AI without losing control of their data."

Varonis’ Browser Protection, Endpoint Protection, and AI Gateway are available now.
