Anthropic strengthens security controls in Claude Enterprise
Anthropic is launching new security features for Claude Enterprise, including 'inference hooks' that allow companies to review prompts and tool calls before the model acts.
What happened?
Anthropic has launched an updated security suite for Claude Enterprise. The key addition is 'inference hooks,' a generally available feature that routes prompts and function calls to the customer's own security tools for validation before Claude responds or performs an action. Simultaneously, a new security center and expanded access controls are being introduced in beta.
Key facts
| Lanseringsdatum | 5 november 2026 |

| Huvudfunktion | Inference hooks (allmänt tillgänglig) |
| Målgrupp | Claude Enterprise-kunder |

Why it matters
As AI assistants gain access to internal systems and tools, the risk of unintended data flows or unauthorized commands increases. By integrating customers' existing security tools directly into the inference flow, organizations can maintain real-time policy control before the model takes action.
Who is affected?
The update is aimed at IT security officers, system administrators, and enterprise customers using Claude within their organizations. Developers integrating external tools with Claude are also affected, as calls can now be vetted by internal security systems before execution.
Impact on the EU
The features are being rolled out globally to Claude Enterprise customers, which includes organizations operating within the EU. However, no specific regulatory adjustments have been communicated in connection with the launch.
What else you should know
The new features combine generally available security filters with beta tools for centralized administration and access management.
