Aurva

Why We Built Aurva

How data is accessed has changed. Dynamic identities touch sensitive data all day long. Humans, services, and AI agents read and move information in ways delayed logs do not capture and static gates cannot govern.

At Meta, we saw a simple model work at massive scale through systems like Hipster: let teams get the access they need to keep the business moving, then observe every touch with real identity and purpose. That model turns security into live truth, not guesswork after the fact.

We built Aurva to bring that model to every company. Runtime, identity-aware visibility into data access and flows, so unauthorized access and privilege abuse are seen and stopped in the moment, and evidence is always ready for audit.

" Fundamentally, how data is accessed has changed. Teams still rely on delayed logs with little context while dynamic identities, touch sensitive data in more ways than ever, from services to AI agents to humans.

We built Aurva to be the runtime access layer so unauthorized access and privilege abuse can be seen, understood, and acted on in real time. "

— Apurv Garg, Co-founder & CEO, Aurva

With the rapid growth of AI, knowing which identities, especially non-human ones, are accessing your data and how is more important than ever. Aurva is redefining access monitoring by tying every action to a real identity across agents, humans, and services.
