Sponsored: Authentik is rethinking PAM for AI agents

Show notes

In this Risky Business sponsored interview, James Wilson chats with Authentik Security CEO Fletcher Heisler about how AI is driving a need for privileged access management to adapt.

Fletcher explains Authentik’s approach: each agent has its own identity, begins with no permissions and is tied to a human.

They also discuss transferring ownership when employees leave, mitigating risks of agents creating identities for each other, and whether task-based access could eventually be a better fit than clock-controlled access.
