Amazon Bedrock's AgentCore Memory introduced fine-grained access control (FGAC) capability, which enforces strict memory isolation by identity through integration with AgentCore Gateway and OAuth (JWT) authentication. This enables organizations to apply Cedar policies to restrict data access based on the caller's authenticated identity, ensuring users can only access their own actor's data and operations.

This infrastructure-level access control moves enforcement from application logic to the data plane, simplifying security in multi-tenant environments. FGAC is underpinned by the AgentCore Memory connector, exposing multiple Memory operations as policy actions with rich request attributes for condition evaluation, enhancing security management within Amazon Bedrock's ecosystem.
