Ping Identity Launches Identity Agents on Google Cloud Marketplace

Enables Employee Self-Service and Identity Administration Capabilities in Google Cloud Gemini Enterprise

Ping Identity, a leader in securing digital identities for the world’s largest enterprises, has announced three new identity agents that let employees and authorised administrators complete common identity tasks in Google Cloud Gemini Enterprise using natural-language conversations. Employees can now manage device authentication, while authorised administrators can reset passwords, terminate sessions, and manage access without moving between Gemini Enterprise and separate identity-management interfaces.

“AI is becoming a new interface for work. Identity can’t remain trapped behind a separate console,” said Andre Durand, Founder and CEO of Ping Identity. “Our new agents enable identity administration capabilities directly in Google Cloud Gemini Enterprise, putting identity into the flow of how people work, while keeping every action tied to the authority of the person behind it.”

Ping Identity: From Conversation to Identity Action

Ping’s new agents connect natural-language requests to defined identity actions through Ping APIs, within the authority established for each use case and user.

The PingID Device Management Agent gives signed-in employees a conversational way to manage their authentication devices. Employees can pair a replacement phone, view registered devices, rename a device, select a default device or remove an old device without navigating a separate management interface. Built on a least-privilege model, the agent holds no standing credentials and cannot independently access resources or perform operations without direction from the authenticated user.

Bringing Identity Administration Into Gemini Enterprise

Ping brings conversational experience in Gemini Enterprise to help desk and identity teams through the PingOne Advanced Identity Cloud Administrator Agent and PingOne Administrator Agent. Both agents support user, access and session management. Within their assigned access controls and administrative permissions, authorised administrators can use natural-language requests for common tasks such as resetting passwords, managing MFA enrollment and reviewing user activity.

For changes within the Advanced Identity Cloud implementation, only approved operators can access it, and the agent requires explicit confirmation before taking action.

The PingID Device Management Agent, PingOne Advanced Identity Cloud Administrator Agent and PingOne Administrator Agent are available now on Google Cloud Marketplace. All three agents are built for Google Cloud Gemini Enterprise using Google’s Agent Development Kit.

“Bringing Ping Identity’s new identity agents to Google Cloud Marketplace will help customers quickly deploy, manage, and grow the agents on Google Cloud’s trusted, global infrastructure,” said Dai Vu, Managing Director, Marketplace & ISV GTM Programs at Google Cloud. “Ping Identity can help to securely scale and support organisations using its agents to help employees and administrators working in Gemini Enterprise to operate within established identity controls more efficiently.”
