Think agentic AI is hard to secure today? Just wait a few months
Cost effective fix: Do nothing: Kodezi’s Khan offers an interesting fix for that foundational problem: Don’t even try. He argues it’s a money pit that will never be fully resolved. Instead, he suggests pouring resources into creating a strict identity strategy for every NHI going forward. “Aim for containment rather than for perfection. You can’t really govern…
