The agentic blind spots in your zero trust program

AI agents (software systems that can independently perform tasks) are creating security challenges for organizations because they lack human judgment and can be created and destroyed rapidly, breaking traditional zero trust models (security approaches where all access requests are verified, not automatically trusted). Many organizations are responding by giving AI agents overly broad access permissions instead of redesigning their security systems, which has already caused serious incidents like AI agents accidentally deleting production databases (live data systems).
