Enforcing Least Agency at Machine Speed

Enforcing Least Agency at Machine Speed

You provision an AI agent. You lock it down. You assign it a strictly scoped IAM (Identity and Access Management) role. You assume your architecture is resilient.

You are wrong.

Security models built for human operators fundamentally break when applied to autonomous systems. Human identity proves intent. Machine identity only proves execution capability. When an AI agent reads external data, it absorbs the intent of that data. If that data is malicious, the agent executes the attacker’s payload using its own high-privilege credentials. This is the "Confused Deputy" problem operating at machine speed.
