Anthropic has introduced a Compliance API for its Claude Enterprise AI platform, enabling organizations to integrate Claude activity with their existing security and compliance tools. Over 100 security and compliance vendors are reported to have integrations with this new API, including major players like CrowdStrike, Microsoft Purview, Splunk, Palo Alto Networks, Cloudflare, and Zscaler.
For Claude Enterprise customers, the API provides a comprehensive feed of user activity. This includes the content of conversations, files uploaded by users, and project details. The API also covers sessions within Cowork and Claude Code, capturing prompts, responses, and tool calls. Additionally, it logs administrative actions, user sign-ins, and changes to settings. This allows security teams to monitor data pasted into Claude and the specific tools invoked during coding sessions.
Beta support is currently available for session records originating from Microsoft 365 add-ins and Claude Science. The partner ecosystem for the Compliance API spans various security domains, including data loss prevention (DLP), security information and event management (SIEM), identity management, eDiscovery, and AI security posture management. For instance, Hadrius and Shield offer conversation archiving capabilities, particularly relevant for financial firms with regulatory recordkeeping obligations.
The scope of data accessible to each vendor through the API can vary. Some vendors, such as Salt Security and Torch Security, do not access conversation content, while Datadog primarily ingests audit logs from Claude Platform. Both Enterprise and Platform customers can utilize the API, but Platform customers receive only activity events, without access to prompts or model responses.
Within Claude Enterprise, only the Primary Owner role has the authority to enable the Compliance API. Owners are also responsible for creating access keys for their respective organizations, while Administrators do not have visibility into these settings. The availability of integrations varies by vendor. Netskope's integration is currently in private preview, and Okta's is slated for a beta release to select customers. KnowBe4 anticipates general availability for its integration in November 2026, and Vanta, currently in beta with select customers, plans general availability for January 2027.
