About this episode
This episode discusses the implications of AI agents on identity and access management with Ken Huang.
AI agents are moving from answering questions to taking action. That changes everything for identity and access management. In this episode, Ken Huang joins Matt to break down why traditional IAM was not built for agentic AI, where service accounts and OAuth scopes fall short, and what CISOs should do now to govern agents before they hit production at scale. Episode Links Ken's substack Ken's paper from 2011 on AI (he was way ahead!) NIST AI RMF
