Portal26, the AI Adoption Management Platform, announced the launch of Free AI Governance and Security for Enterprise Claude Deployments. With Claude adoption surging forward at speeds far greater than security budgets can support, governance and security have taken a big hit, often defeating the very purpose AI set out to achieve. By providing the tools needed for responsibly rolling out Claude, free of cost and with a few minutes of effort, Portal26’s launch makes governance and security widely accessible.

“Deploying Claude is the starting point. What organizations need is the infrastructure to govern it, protect it, and prove its value,” said Pakshi Rajan, Chief AI & Product Officer, Portal26.

“Deploying Claude is the starting point. What organizations need upfront is the infrastructure to discover all Claude AI, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork usage, surface all conversations and tool calls, govern it, protect it, and prove its value,” said Pakshi Rajan, Chief GenAI & Product Officer, Portal26. “Portal26 is the only platform that provides foundational capabilities free of cost making security extremely accessible and high-value enterprise Claude deployments a reality.”

In its April 9, 2026 blog post, Anthropic acknowledged that while it has begun to provide some oversight, governance and controls are recommended. According to early 2026 data, Anthropic accounts for nearly 30% of enterprise LLM spend. As enterprises accelerate adoption of Claude and Claude Cowork, the risks of ungoverned AI usage, unprotected data, and unquantifiable ROI have never been higher. Portal26 is the only platform purpose-built to address all three challenges simultaneously — providing real-time visibility into how Claude is being used across the enterprise, industry-leading security and governance controls to protect data and IP, and deep analytics that drive measurable business value at every stage of deployment.

Portal26’s Free Offering for Claude includes critical capabilities such as:

  • User, Model, and Agent Discovery
  • Agent Access Graphs
  • Tool Call Visibility
  • Token Usage and Costs
  • Conversation Threads

Advanced integrated AI security capabilities across Claude and other enterprise AI are also available via Portal26’s regularly priced platform. Advanced capabilities include premium features such as:

  • Comprehensive Security and Risk Detection
  • Real-time Security Policy Enforcement
  • Token Policy and Cost Enforcement
  • MCP Controls and Policy Enforcement
  • Enterprise integrations into IDP, SSO, SIEM, IR and other security platforms
  • Access and Privacy Controls

“As Claude AI, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork become core to how enterprises work, the need for a dedicated management layer has never been clearer,” said Arti Raman, CEO, Portal26. “Portal26 gives organizations the full-lifecycle AI management capability they need to move from cautious experimentation to confident, scalable, and measurable Claude adoption — securely, and at speed. Most importantly, Portal26 provides critical governance and security capabilities for Claude free of charge, making it widely available and accessible to Claude users everywhere.”
