Human-centric IAM is failing: Agentic AI requires a new identity control plane,
Agentic AI is changing everything about access control. This article lays out the gaps in human-centric IAM systems and introduces concepts for a new AI-aware identity model.

What is the role of identity in AI operations?
Identity serves as the control plane for AI operations by managing access and authorization dynamically rather than statically. This shift is crucial because traditional identity and access management (IAM) systems, designed for human users, struggle to scale with the increasing number of non-human identities. By rethinking identity management, organizations can ensure secure access to data and applications while minimizing risks.
Why is traditional IAM inadequate for agentic AI?
Traditional IAM systems often rely on static roles and long-lived passwords, which become ineffective when non-human identities outnumber human ones significantly. These systems cannot adapt to the dynamic nature of agentic AI, where tasks and required data access can change frequently. This inadequacy can lead to security vulnerabilities, such as over-permissioned agents that can act without oversight.
How can organizations secure their AI agents?
Organizations should start by cataloging all non-human identities and issuing unique identities for each agent. Implementing just-in-time access with short-lived credentials can help manage permissions more effectively. Additionally, using synthetic data for testing and validation before moving to real data can provide a safer environment to establish and refine security policies.
