Immuta CISO predicts critical AI incidents at major enterprises within 18 months
Michael Scott, CISO at Immuta, discusses how organizations should manage permissions for artificial intelligence (AI) agents, arguing they should be treated as lower-trust identities that do not inherit all user access. He distinguishes privilege escalation in agents from human privilege creep, explains how authority should delegate to sub-agents, and notes that authentication alone does not control agent actions. Scott predicts at least two major enterprises will experience critical AI incidents within 18 months.
Why it matters: Security leaders overseeing AI agent deployments need to implement segregated permissions models now, as widespread privilege misconfigurations in production agents pose imminent risk to enterprise data and systems.
