identity access

Sponsored: Authentik is rethinking PAM for AI agents

Authentik Security's CEO discusses how artificial intelligence (AI) agents are driving changes in privileged access management (PAM) practices. The company's model assigns each agent a unique identity with zero initial permissions, ties agents to human owners, and addresses handoff procedures when employees depart. The interview covers mitigation strategies for agent-to-agent identity creation and explores whether task-based access control could replace time-based permissions.

Why it matters: Security teams adopting AI agents need to evaluate PAM policies that account for agent identities and prevent lateral movement between agents; this interview outlines one vendor's approach to isolating agent privileges.
