Automation Anywhere Launches EnterpriseClaw to Secure Autonomous AI Agents in Enterprise Environments

Breaking: Automation Anywhere Unveils EnterpriseClaw for Safe AI Agent Deployment

Automation Anywhere today announced EnterpriseClaw, a governance and security platform designed to let companies deploy autonomous AI agents across desktops, cloud, on-premises systems, and behind-firewall networks. The platform, developed with Cisco, Nvidia, Okta, and OpenAI, aims to address the critical flaws exposed by the viral but insecure OpenClaw tool.

EnterpriseClaw is now available in preview, with general availability expected later this year. The solution provides centralized control, identity management, and observability for fleets of AI agents executing business-critical tasks.

Key Features and Partnerships

The platform integrates with Cisco AI Defense for agent-specific security, Nvidia's OpenShell runtime and Nemotron models for on-premises deployment, and Okta for cross-agent identity and authentication. OpenAI collaboration gives customers access to GPT-5.5 and other leading models.

EnterpriseClaw automates work via Automation Anywhere's Process Reasoning Engine and Contextual Intelligence Graph. Agents can operate in parallel within managed containers, hand off tasks, and combine outputs for compound value, the company said.

Expert Reaction

"The level of distrust and insecurity associated with OpenClaw is covered in significant detail in the EnterpriseClaw launch," said Manish Jain, principal research director at Info-Tech Research Group. "The collaboration between Nvidia, OpenAI, Okta, and Cisco adds credibility to the proposition of trusted infrastructure, identity, and security layers."

However, no clear differentiator sets EnterpriseClaw apart from competitors, noted Jason Andersen, VP and principal analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy. "It's a crowded space, and enterprises will need to evaluate if the integrated security stack outweighs other offerings," he said.

Background

OpenClaw, an autonomous agent orchestration tool, launched last November and quickly went viral. But its dramatic security flaws—lack of governance, identity controls, and observability—were exposed just as fast, raising enterprise concerns about deploying AI agents at scale.

Since then, organizations have been seeking ways to deploy autonomous agents safely and securely. EnterpriseClaw is Automation Anywhere's answer, built on lessons from OpenClaw's rapid rise and fall.

What This Means

EnterpriseClaw could accelerate enterprise adoption of multi-agent systems by providing a trusted infrastructure layer. The platform's ability to enforce policies, access controls, and guardrails locally on-device—while delivering telemetry and audit logs—addresses key compliance and security requirements in regulated industries.

Use cases include claims investigation, code generation, post-incident log analysis, and secure data processing. By keeping sensitive data inside enterprise systems, EnterpriseClaw may unlock new productivity gains without compromising security.

Availability and Next Steps

EnterpriseClaw is now in preview. Automation Anywhere expects general availability later this year. The company encourages enterprises to test the platform in controlled environments to evaluate its governance features.
