Oracle AI Agent Studio unveiled powerful new updates designed to adopt AI safely, securely, and at scale. In this post, we’re exploring one of the most critical aspects of AI adoption: Security and Governance.
The Challenge: Security
The first roadblock to adopting AI often comes down to something deceptively simple—access.
Without proper role setup and permissions, businesses can’t fully leverage Oracle’s AI Agent Studio. Users may find themselves unable to create, test, or deploy AI agents, stalling innovation before it even begins.
The solution? A security-first approach that ensures the right people have the right access.
Built-In Security: Not Bolted On
Oracle’s AI Agent Studio is designed with security embedded at the core. This starts with a well-defined role-based access control (RBAC) structure:
- Pillar-Specific Admin Roles – tailored for Human Capital Management (HCM), Supply Chain Management (SCM), and Procurement (PRC).
- All-Pillar Admin Role – a comprehensive option for leaders who need to oversee AI use across business functions.
- Explorer Roles – lightweight roles for employees to test and interact with AI agents without compromising system integrity.
Before assigning roles, Oracle recommends enabling permission groups and running security batch jobs to accurately sync users, roles, and privileges. These steps guarantee that AI Agents can run properly, without unnecessary friction.
AI Governance & Compliance: Building Trust in Enterprise AI
Security is only part of the equation. Enterprises must also navigate the evolving landscape of AI governance.
Oracle’s governance framework emphasizes:
- AI Acceptable Use Policies – ensuring employees use AI responsibly.
- Regulatory Compliance – addressing new laws like the EU AI Act, Colorado AI law, and New York legislation.
- Risk Mitigation – identifying and managing risks across data privacy, labor relations, and security.
To support enterprises, Oracle developed the AI Innovation & Governance Office (AIIGO), a playbook for structuring governance around AI adoption.
Key practices include:
- Defining AI Use Cases by business value and urgency.
- Use Case Scorecards evaluating compliance, privacy, and risk.
- Ongoing Progress Reviews to ensure governance is living, not static.
This structured approach allows enterprises to realize AI’s business value—time savings, efficiency, and cost benefits—while staying aligned with compliance requirements.
Extending AI Securely with TRAP
Beyond internal governance, enterprises also need AI to integrate with external REST APIs. Oracle’s Token Relay and Proxy (TRAP) feature provides a secure way to do this.
TRAP acts as a security layer, handling token-based authentication to external systems, so AI Agents can extend beyond Oracle Fusion Applications without exposing sensitive data.
The result? Powerful integrations that maintain enterprise-grade security.
The Business Benefits of Secure AI Adoption
Enterprises that configure Oracle AI Agent Studio correctly unlock three major advantages:
- Faster AI Adoption – streamlined access means teams can start experimenting and innovating immediately.
- Regulatory Confidence – governance frameworks reduce compliance risks in a fast-changing legal environment.
- Secure Innovation – TRAP and role-based security ensure AI-driven processes are protected from unauthorized access.

FAQs
1. Why do I need to configure security before using AI Agent Studio?
Proper security setup ensures that only the right users can access AI features, reducing risks and ensuring smooth functionality.
2. What are pillar-specific roles vs. all-pillar roles?
Pillar-specific roles limit AI access to functions like HCM or SCM, while all-pillar roles provide broad administrative access across the enterprise.
3. How does Oracle help with AI compliance?
Through the AI Innovation & Governance Office (AIIGO), Oracle provides playbooks, scorecards, and frameworks to help organizations align AI adoption with global regulations.
