# JumpCloud
**Last Updated:** 2026-04-10


JumpCloud is the only IT platform that unifies identity, device, and access management for an organization's entire workforce[…]human, non-human (NHI), and agentic[…]into a single, cloud-native Open Directory Platform. JumpCloud eliminates the complexity and cost of stitching together fragmented point solutions by anchoring every human user, service account, and autonomous AI agent to verified, healthy devices with the right level of access. Purpose-built for modern IT environments, JumpCloud enables organizations of all sizes to securely manage identities, devices (Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, Android), applications, and network infrastructure from one proactive, audit-ready console. Whether replacing legacy Active Directory, consolidating a fragmented IT stack, or establishing a cloud-first directory for a growing enterprise, JumpCloud provides the flexible, vendor-neutral IT foundation that teams need to support hybrid and remote workforces and scale safely into the agentic future.

## Introduction


JumpCloud is the leader in human and non-human identity management, connecting every identity[…]employees, contractors, service accounts, API keys, and autonomous AI agents[…]to the resources they need across devices, applications, files, and networks, regardless of location, provider, or protocol. The platform anchors every identity to a verified, healthy device through identity-device binding: if the hardware isn't trusted, the access doesn't exist. Unlike traditional directory services that lock organizations into rigid ecosystems, JumpCloud is vendor-agnostic and protocol-flexible, supporting SAML, OIDC, LDAP, RADIUS, SCIM, and more. As organizations adopt AI agents and agentic workflows, JumpCloud discovers, registers, and governs the identity lifecycle of every app and autonomous agent[…]ensuring that Shadow AI is managed with the same rigor as Shadow IT. The platform serves IT administrators, MSPs, security teams, and organizations ranging from commercial mid-market companies consolidating their IT infrastructure to global enterprises modernizing away from on-premises Active Directory. JumpCloud is trusted by over 250,000 organizations worldwide and is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with a security-first architecture.

## Multi-Tenancy and Managed Service Providers (MSPs)


JumpCloud's Multi-Tenant Portal (MTP) provides a purpose-built, centralized management console that enables MSPs, VARs, and IT service providers to manage identity, devices, and access across all client organizations from a single pane of glass. Multi-tenancy is a core architectural capability of the JumpCloud platform, supporting service providers at scale.


**Key capabilities:**
- **Centralized multi-tenant console** with unified visibility across all client organizations, users, devices, and security posture.
- **Delegated administration per tenant** with role-based access controls to scope operator permissions to individual client environments.
- **Cross-client policy templates** for standardizing security baselines, compliance requirements, and device configurations across managed organizations.
- **Centralized billing and usage reporting** for simplified financial management across the MSP's entire client portfolio.
- **JumpCloud for MSPs™ partner program** with dedicated support, go-to-market resources, deal registration, and partner-tier pricing models.
- **Scalable onboarding** allowing MSPs to rapidly provision new client tenants with pre-configured identity, device, and access policies.

## Agentic Identity and Non-Human Identity (NHI) Management


JumpCloud treats AI agents and autonomous workflows as first-class identity types alongside human users. As organizations deploy agentic AI across IT operations, customer support, DevOps, and business automation, JumpCloud provides the governance, accountability, and device trust infrastructure required to manage non-human identities (NHI) at scale.


**Core principles:**
- **Accountability** […] every agentic identity is bound to an owner, a purpose, and a policy scope. JumpCloud ensures that AI agents, service accounts, and API keys are registered, tracked, and auditable throughout their lifecycle, with clear ownership attribution for every action taken.
- **Device Trust for agents** […] autonomous agents are anchored to verified, healthy devices through JumpCloud's identity-device binding architecture. If the hardware an agent runs on is not trusted or falls out of compliance, the agent's access is automatically denied[…]preventing compromised or rogue agents from accessing corporate resources.
- **Identity lifecycle governance** […] agentic identities follow the same lifecycle management as human identities: provisioning, role-based access assignment, conditional access enforcement, periodic access review, and automated deprovisioning. No zombie agent accounts.
- **Shadow AI governance** […] JumpCloud discovers, registers, and governs the identity lifecycle of every app and autonomous agent through its AI & SaaS Management module, ensuring that unsanctioned AI agents are identified and brought under policy control.
- **Unified audit trail** […] all agentic identity actions are logged in Directory Insights alongside human identity events, providing a single compliance record for auditors and security teams.
