Why AI Agents Need Their Own Identity, Not Yours

AI agents should operate with distinct identities rather than borrowing human credentials, as tying agents to human identities creates security risks and operational problems when employees leave or change roles. AuthZed CEO Jake Moshenko explains that agents function best as autonomous company processes with their own permission systems, similar to how organizations manage human access. However, verifying correct agent decisions remains challenging, as sophisticated testing can't guarantee proper behavior, requiring human oversight through "trust but verify" approaches similar to managing employees.
