Delinea tackles AI agent security with real-time authorization

As AI agents gain access to enterprise systems, traditional identity and privilege controls are falling short. Delinea CEO Art Gilliland argues that trying to discover and credential every AI agent is impractical, and organizations need to focus instead on protecting sensitive assets through real-time authorization. Delinea's approach evaluates each agent action in line with the protocol, creating a full audit trail for security and compliance. Gilliland warns that AI agents can autonomously scan files, find credentials and escalate privileges in ways humans and traditional machines would not, making front-door access controls insufficient on their own.
