Okta introduced its Agent Gateway at the Oktane event to enable inline governance of AI agents, allowing organizations to authorise specific actions beyond initial access. The initiative aligns with broader industry efforts, including the Blueprint Alliance, to establish standards and shared controls across vendors for secure AI agent deployment in identity security workflows.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Security: Identity & Access.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Okta's AI agent governance introduces a new security layer that demands you redefine access controls from login to ongoing AI agent actions. You must adapt your identity solutions now to maintain control as AI agents extend across complex systems.
