Anthropic adds a security center to Claude Enterprise and makes inference hooks generally available
Anthropic added new security and admin features to Claude Enterprise: a security center (beta) that compares an organization's Claude settings with recommended ones, generally available inference hooks that send prompts and tool calls to a company's own security tools, and a central admin console.
What happened
- The security center checks settings for chat, Cowork and Claude Code against Anthropic's recommended configuration, links to each setting to change, and exports a report for auditors.
- Inference hooks are now generally available in two forms: prompt hooks, which send prompts for a policy check, and pre-tool-call hooks, which check tool calls before they run.
- Centralized management (beta) gives a parent organization one console at admin.claude.com for single sign-on, directory sync, groups and Compliance API keys across its Claude organizations.
- New beta access controls let admins sign a member out everywhere with one Admin API call, manage their own IP allowlist, and block personal Claude accounts in Claude Desktop on managed computers.
- Anthropic says the security center is guidance, not a certification or guarantee of compliance.
Why it matters: For companies rolling out Claude to staff, it's easier to prove to IT and auditors how Claude is configured and to apply existing data-loss rules to what people type and what agents do.
