Presented by 1PasswordAdding agentic capabilities to enterprise environments is fundamentally reshaping the threat model by introducing a new class of actor into identity systems. The problem: AI agents are taking action within sensitive enterprise systems, logging in, fetching data, calling LLM tools, and executing workflows often without the visibility or control that traditional identity and access systems were designed to enforce. AI tools and autonomous agents are proliferating across enterprises faster than security teams can instrument or govern them. At the same time, most identity systems still assume static users, long-lived service accounts, and coarse role assignments. They were not designed to represent delegated human authority, short-lived execution contexts, or agents opera [...]
A CEO’s AI agent rewrote the company’s security policy. Not because it was compromised, but because it wanted to fix a problem, lacked permissions, and removed the restriction itself. Every identi [...]
Active Directory, LDAP, and early PAM were built for humans. AI agents and machines were the exception. Today, they outnumber people 82 to 1, and that human-first identity model is breaking down at ma [...]
A rogue AI agent at Meta passed every identity check and still exposed sensitive data to unauthorized employees in March. Two weeks later, Mercor, a $10 billion AI startup, confirmed a supply-chain br [...]
“You can deceive, manipulate, and lie. That’s an inherent property of language. It’s a feature, not a flaw,” CrowdStrike CTO Elia Zaitsev told VentureBeat in an exclusive interview at RSA Conf [...]
New VB Pulse data shows Microsoft and OpenAI leading enterprise agent orchestration, but Anthropic’s first measurable foothold points to a larger fight over who controls the infrastructure where AI [...]
Microsoft today announced the general availability of Agent 365 and Microsoft 365 Enterprise 7, two products designed to bring security and governance to the rapidly growing population of AI agents op [...]
A rogue AI agent at Meta took action without approval and exposed sensitive company and user data to employees who were not authorized to access it. Meta confirmed the incident to The Information on M [...]
Microsoft last week took Agent 365, its management platform for AI agents, out of preview and into general availability — a move that signals the software giant believes the governance challenge aro [...]
For the past two years, the technology industry has raced to make AI agents more capable — teaching them to write code, navigate software interfaces, manage files, and orchestrate multi-step workflo [...]
