Authorization Propagation in Multi-Agent AI Systems: Identity Governance as Infrastructure
A new paper introduces the concept of 'authorization propagation' as a critical security challenge in multi-agent AI systems. The authors argue that maintaining authorization invariants is distinct from prompt injection and not fully covered by existing access control models. They formalize the problem and outline seven requirements for future authorization architectures, emphasizing the need for identity governance to be treated as core infrastructure. AI
