Why agent identity and tokens matter as AI workflows gain privilege

Intelligence Summary

AI agents are increasingly able to access enterprise data, invoke workflows, and perform actions across connected systems. When these agents rely on privileged identities, a stolen or misused token can let an attacker expand reach quickly. The core issue is governance: enterprises often lack clear controls around who or what is authorized to act. Token Security highlights the need for proper identity lifecycle management for agent accounts. Users should review how agent credentials and tokens are issued, scoped, stored, and monitored across systems.
