Summary: Okta CEO Todd McKinnon explains why agents create identity risk when they use service accounts, machine identities and sensitive resources across systems. The companion article covers visibility, access control, threat monitoring and Cross App Access. The lesson reflects Okta’s product perspective, so its architecture claims require independent evaluation in each environment.
Why it matters: Use the lesson to inventory every identity an agent can assume, the resources each identity reaches and the evidence retained for review. That turns an abstract agent-security concern into a bounded access-control and lifecycle exercise.
