Securing Agentic AI: How to Protect the Invisible Identity Access
AI agents promise to automate everything from financial reconciliations to incident response. Yet every time an AI agent spins up a workflow, it has to authenticate somewhere; often with a high-privilege API key, OAuth token, or service account that defenders can’t easily see. These “invisible” non-human identities (NHIs) now outnumber human accounts in most cloud environments, and they have
