Keeper Security's Takanori Nishiyama explains that AI agents which act with system credentials should be treated as privileged identities with strict identity governance, just-in-time access, and credential management. The rise of AI agents introduces new security challenges due to their autonomous actions and transient nature, requiring extension of privileged access management practices to non-human identities across Asia Pacific.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.
