The core risks and why traditional IAM is not enough

Takeaway Points:
Section 1 Why this matters now
AI agents are not just passive workloads. They can:
receive instructions, make decisions, call tools, query data, interact with users and likely other agents
This generates new security questions:
which agent is acting?, who owns it?, what is it allowed to do?, what is it actually doing right now?, and does that behaviour still align with the intended outcome?
Section 2 What is agentic identity?
An agentic identity is an identity assigned to an AI-driven software entity that can act with some level of autonomy, using credentials, permissions and tools to achieve tasks on behalf of a person, team or business process.
