The concept of "zero trust" in cybersecurity is being re-evaluated to accommodate the rise of AI agents. While traditional zero trust focuses on verifying identities and access, AI agents introduce new complexities as they operate within legitimate workflows and can perform actions that appear routine but may be excessive or misaligned. Anthropic has proposed a framework that expands zero trust principles to include observability, traceability, and behavioral monitoring for AI agents, treating them as a new category of insider risk. Companies like Keeper Security are also extending their privilege management solutions to provide governance and attribution for AI agent actions at the operating system level. AI
