The next frontier in identity security involves managing AI agents rather than just human identities. These agents, created by users on low-code platforms, inherit human permissions and can autonomously act using enterprise credentials. Traditional security tools struggle to track these agents and the machine identities they generate, creating an "inheritance chain" where access persists even after the original human creator departs or changes roles. This poses a significant operational risk, as machine identities already vastly outnumber human ones, and agentic AI is projected to rapidly increase. AI
