Managing scale in the age of agentic AI: 14 problems to solve
In the coming years, enterprises will deploy 50 to 80 times more AI agents than human users. This isn’t incremental change – it’s an identity tsunami. Today’s agents aren’t just bots or microservices. They are autonomous, goal-directed AI entities acting on behalf of your organization. They orchestrate tasks, call APIs, ... Read More
Anxiety about agentic anthropomorphism? Embrace it.
I grew up as a Star Wars kid. I loved the fantastic world of Jedi, X-Wing fighters, and AT-AT walkers. But what I really wanted was my own droid. R2-D2 was my favorite – plucky, loyal, and surprisingly capable – but I always understood C-3PO better. He talked like a ... Read More
Agentic AI security: 8 strategies in 2025
What happens when your help desk copilot spins up 100 agents to solve support tickets, and one of them starts issuing refunds outside of policy? Or when your marketing bot connects to production data to generate “insights,” without audit logs, user delegation, or any trace of why it did what ... Read More
A New Identity Playbook for AI Agents: Securing the Agentic User Flow
Artificial intelligence has reached an inflection point. AI agents are no longer just service accounts or background processes. They’re decision-makers, workflow executors, and digital delegates—acting autonomously across APIs, clouds, and systems. Unlike traditional non-human identities (NHI), like service accounts or static API keys, agentic identities are dynamic, ephemeral, and often ... Read More
The Identity Gaps in Agentic AI: 9 Problems We Must Solve to Secure the Future
AI agents have evolved from passive tools into proactive actors—making decisions, executing transactions, and interacting with APIs autonomously. Unlike traditional non-human identities (NHI) that serve narrow, static purposes, agentic identities are dynamic, ephemeral, and often independent in their actions. By 2026, Gartner predicts that 30% of enterprises will rely on ... Read More
Why AI Agents Deserve 1st Class Identity Management
Artificial intelligence is no longer just about passive assistants or chatbots that wait for human instructions. We’re in the agentic era—where AI agents reason, plan, take initiative, and act autonomously. These agents don’t just help humans; they become actors on behalf of humans, systems, and even other agents. Gartner predicts ... Read More
Agents Are People Too: The Identity Gaps That Put AI Agents—and Enterprises—at Risk
AI agents have crossed a threshold. They’re no longer just tools waiting for instructions. They reason, plan, act, and collaborate autonomously—often across systems and domains, without direct human oversight. Gartner predicts that by 2026, nearly a third of enterprises will deploy AI agents that execute workflows and decisions independently at ... Read More
OAuth and Agentic Identity: The Foundation for Zero Trust AI—and What’s Next
AI agents are no longer theory—they’re live, autonomous actors making decisions, calling APIs, and driving transactions across multi-cloud environments. As enterprises shift from predictive to proactive AI, identity must keep up with AI’s scale, speed, and complexity. At Strata, we see OAuth 2.0 as the best foundation for agentic identity ...

The Identity Problem at AI Scale: Why Agentic AI Demands More From OAuth
AI agents aren’t theoretical anymore. They’re active in our enterprises—making decisions, chaining API calls, interacting across clouds, and operating autonomously at machine speed. But as organizations move from predictive AI to proactive, agentic AI, our identity systems hit a wall. AI agents create entirely new challenges for identity and access ... Read More
Why Enterprises Need Just-in-Time Provisioning to Secure AI at Scale
AI agents are no longer science experiments in the enterprise. They’re becoming actors in critical workflows—making decisions, performing transactions, and chaining together complex API calls across multi-cloud environments. Gartner calls this the shift from predictive to proactive AI, where agents don’t just respond—they act. But there’s a catch: our identity ... Read More
