Noma Security review (2026): AI agent security across endpoint, SaaS and homegrown apps

The verdict

Noma Security is the strongest pick in this guide when AI agents run in several places: on laptops, inside SaaS and in apps you build. It discovers endpoint agents such as Claude Code, Cursor and Codex through your existing EDR or MDM and blocks unauthorized ones, but its public pages describe per-tool-call decisions less specifically than Bay's.

Rank 2 of 9

Best for endpoint plus SaaS and homegrown agents

What does Noma Security do?

  • Discovers endpoint agents such as Claude Code, Cursor and Codex, along with the MCP servers and skills each one uses.
  • Blocks unauthorized and malicious agents, controls what each agent can do, and stops risky behavior at runtime.
  • Inspects each action across the event, the session, the identity behind the agent and the data it reaches.
  • Keeps a live registry of which agents, MCP servers and skills are allowed and enforces access policies (Agent Access Control).
  • AI-SPM for posture across cloud, SaaS and developer environments; AI-DR for runtime detection of prompt injection, data exfiltration and scope violations; AI Red Teaming with multi-turn adversarial tests.
  • Lists SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 9001 and HIPAA compliance (vendor-stated).

How does Noma Security score?

Endpoint and agent visibilityWeight 22%8/10

Discovers endpoint agents such as Claude Code, Cursor and Codex with their MCP servers and skills.

MCP and tool-call controlWeight 20%7/10

Blocks unauthorized and malicious agents and stops risky behavior at runtime; per-tool-call mechanics are described less specifically.

LOWEST IN GUIDE

Agent vs human identity and auditWeight 12%7/10

Keeps a live registry of allowed agents, MCP servers and skills and inspects the identity behind each agent.

Deployment footprintWeight 13%8/10

Discovers endpoint agents through existing EDR or MDM with no new endpoint agent to deploy.

HIGHEST IN GUIDE
Coverage beyond the endpointWeight 8%9/10

Covers endpoint, SaaS and homegrown agents, plus AI-SPM and AI red teaming.

How we score

Where is Noma Security strongest?

  • Coverage breadth: endpoint, SaaS and homegrown agents in one platform (9 out of 10 on breadth, tied highest).
  • Endpoint discovery through existing EDR or MDM.
  • Posture, access control, runtime detection and red teaming from one vendor.

What should buyers check before choosing Noma Security?

  • Tool-call mechanics: public pages do not describe decision types (for example ask or simulate) or latency for per-action enforcement. Ask for a demonstration on your coding agents.
  • Pricing is not published.
  • A broad platform can mean more to deploy if you only need endpoint control.

Who should shortlist Noma Security?

Shortlist Noma Security if your agent estate spans employee devices, SaaS platforms and in-house AI applications, and you want one vendor for discovery, posture, runtime and testing.
