FEATURE
AI agents are going to play an increasingly important role in how work gets done. operate across multiple markets, jurisdictions and technology environments.
That creates a specific risk: either security and IT teams become a bottleneck, or access grows faster than oversight can keep up.
Identity is the foundation
If an AI agent can act in your environment, it needs to be governed accordingly. That means giving it a clear identity, tightly scoped access and the ability to be monitored, suspended or revoked when needed.
Identity gives organisations visibility into where AI agents exist, what they can access and how they are behaving. It also provides the controls needed to apply policy consistently, reduce unnecessary privilege, and support the auditability that regulators and customers increasingly expect.
