Obsidian Security expanded its agent governance platform with native controls for Claude Code and Cowork, tightening enterprise oversight of AI-agent access to production data and sensitive files. The update adds enforcement to restrict permissions and block unauthorized MCP/tool usage before risky actions can execute. It extends runtime governance across third-party business systems where agent-to-backend links can create privilege-escalation and policy-violation exposure.

Obsidian Security adds native governance controls for Claude Code and Cowork
Mitigation Patch UpdateObsidian Security expanded its agent governance platform with native controls for Claude Code and Cowork, letting security teams restrict agent permissions around production data, manage access to sensitive files, adjust overly broad access rights, and block unauthorized MCP or tool usage. The platform also keeps an inventory of MCP servers connected across an organization so teams can tie backend links to the specific agents invoking them and spot unsanctioned connections.
