Zero Trust Has a Blind Spot—Your AI Agents

This sponsored article from Token Security warns that autonomous AI agents often operate with inherited or unmanaged credentials, creating 'orphaned' or over-permissioned identities that undermine Zero Trust and increase risk. It recommends applying the NIST AI RMF through an identity-centric Zero Trust approach—discovering and inventorying agents, assigning owners, applying intent-based least privilege, rotating credentials, and enforcing governance—to restore accountability and reduce AI-specific attack surface.
