Eric Haugh reposted thisEric Haugh reposted this📣 The new edition of Identity Security, Simply Put is here! AI continues to stress-test the identity stack, and we’re seeing the cracks in the architecture. This issue unpacks why the era of tool layering is over, and what it actually takes to secure human, agentic AI, and non-human identities under one runtime authorization model. Here's what's inside: 🟣 The Anthropic MCP design flaw the vendor itself calls "expected behavior" — putting 200,000+ AI servers a single config edit away from remote code execution. The real lesson: when the protocol is exploitable by design, the only place left to contain risk is the access boundary. 🟣 SpyCloud's recapture of 18.1 million leaked API keys (6.2 million of which were tied directly to AI tools) — proof that every static token sitting in a vault is a standing liability with a long fuse, not an asset. 🟣 The path forward? Stop vaulting static tokens, start minting dynamic, ephemeral privileges. Zero Standing Privileges #ZSP for human, agentic AI, and machine identities that’s enforced at runtime and revoked the moment the work is done. 🌟 Plus four April Britive blogs (including a deep dive on AWS Security Hub Extended and what native Shared Signals Framework #SSF support unlocks), a recorded webinar on architecting guardrails for agentic AI, and where we'll be IRL between now and #Identiverse2026 Don’t forget to subscribe so the next edition lands directly in your feed 🔔 #AgenticAI #IdentitySecurity #PAM #NHI #AISecurity #CloudSecurity #Britive

Eric Haugh reposted thisEric Haugh reposted thisYesterday we shared that Britive was selected as a curated PAM partner in the new AWS Security Hub Extended plan. Here’s why that matters. Security teams are overwhelmed with findings, yet most environments still rely on a “see something, respond later” model. In machine-speed cloud and autonomous AI environments, visibility alone isn’t security. Real security means enforcing access at the moment it happens — not after the fact. That’s what this partnership enables. As Chetan Jha Head of Identity & Vulnerability Management at Marqeta, explains: "As we expand our use of automation, AI, and AWS, managing privileged access across human, service, and agentic identities has become a priority. Britive gives us consistent controls across environments, and the availability of Britive within AWS Security Hub Extended helps align access controls with the rest of our AWS security investments." Through the AWS Security Hub Extended plan, Britive helps organizations move beyond passive detection to runtime identity access enforcement — replacing standing privileges with dynamic, just-in-time ephemeral access. With Britive’s unified platform, organizations can: • Eliminate standing privilege – Replace permanent credentials with Zero Standing Privilege (ZSP) so access exists only when needed. • Secure human and machine identities consistently – Apply the same authorization model to users, AI agents, and non-human identities. • Modernize without architectural drag – Secure workloads without agents, proxies, or legacy PAM complexity. • Streamline through AWS – Deploy and procure Britive through a single AWS-native purchasing and operational experience. This partnership is a major step toward real-time identity security built for cloud and AI environments. We’ve included the press release link in the comments below for those who want to dive deeper.

Eric Haugh reposted thisEric Haugh reposted thisBritive is now a curated PAM partner in the newly launched Amazon Web Services (AWS) Security Hub Extended plan! Enterprise environments are multi-cloud, hybrid, SaaS-heavy, and are increasingly driven by AI. In this world, visibility is table stakes. You can’t observe your way to security. A unified identity control plane that delivers total visibility, unified control and runtime enforcement is foundational for any modern enterprise security fabric. That’s why we’re a launch partner for the AWS Security Hub Extended plan. The Britive platform delivers: - Unified Visibility & Governance: A natively unified privileged access control plane that provides a single source of truth - Policy-Driven Control: One common policy model to enforce privilege authorization decisions in the runtime for all types of identities - Ephemeral Privileges: Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP) minted at the exact moment of request and automatically revoked - Agentic AI Identity and Access: Extending the same runtime authorization and dynamic privilege controls for human and non-human identities to agentic AI under one unified identity control plane. We’re excited to work with AWS to help enterprises build more integrated and scalable security architecture to meet the innovation demands in the AI era.

Eric Haugh reposted thisEric Haugh reposted thisIn a world of ephemeral cloud infrastructure and autonomous AI agents, the old way of managing privileged access—static roles and permanent vaults—is no longer just "legacy." It’s a liability. We are proud to be recognized by Software Analyst Cyber Research as a key player in the next generation of Privileged Access Management. As the report highlights, the $25B consolidation of legacy players has created a clear divide. On one side: traditional vaulting and session proxies. On the other: the future of Zero Standing Privilege (#ZSP). At Britive, we believe: Standing privilege is a bug, not a feature. If an identity has access it isn’t currently using, that’s a target on your back. Runtime Authorization > Vaulting. Real-time, Just-in-Time (#JIT) ephemeral access is the only way to secure the speed of DevOps and the scale of Non-Human Identities (NHIs). Identity is the new control plane. Security must be invisible to the practitioner but absolute in its enforcement. The analyst community is recognizing what customers already know: the legacy PAM era is ending. The era of ephemeral, intelligent, and cloud-native privilege has arrived. We’re not just filling a gap in the market. We’re building the new standard for identity security. 👇 Read the full analysis by Francis Odum in the comments below. #PAM #AccessManagement #CloudSecurity #AISecurity #IdentitySecurity

Eric Haugh liked thisEric Haugh liked thisMost identity programs treat identity like a noun. So progress looks like, let’s add more attributes and categories to mature our taxonomy to show progress and how thoughtful and nuanced our identity programs is. But nothing actually changes, because identity isn’t a noun. It’s a verb. It’s what an identity can do, how it’s verified, and how the system responds in real time (think mfa, step up, allow, deny) If your labels don’t drive different behavior “Privileged.” “Contractor.” “High risk.” If they all behave the same, those labels mean nothing. That gap between what you’ve defined and what you actually enforce is called Taxonomic Debt. My advise, don’t get caught up in the hype, IAM is one of best fields to apply the first principle thinking. I break this down in the latest episode of The Identity Navigator. #TheIdentityNavigator

Eric Haugh liked thisEric Haugh liked thisBefore the weekend starts, let's talk PAM maturity. Modern times create modern problems, and AI is now operating inside privileged environments. Most PAM tools weren't built for that. Some vendors bolted on a fix, while Britive was built from the ground up with this exact problem in mind. The difference matters. The infographic below is how I believe any PAM tool can be simplified, and where your tools should be capable of getting you. Most teams stop at stage one or two and call it done. The ones that reach stage five are the ones that stop breaches before they start. Where does your organization fall? #ZeroStandingPrivileges #ZSP #CloudSecurity #PAM #ZeroTrust #CyberSecurity #Britive

Eric Haugh liked thisEric Haugh liked thisThinking you’ll secure your AI agents like service accounts? 😬🙅♀️ As organizations navigate the agentic AI conversation, applying static access models to autonomous systems creates a massive, invisible attack surface. Service accounts operate on predictable, scripted behavior. AI agents operate on intent, generating their own, potentially unexpected execution paths across your cloud environments and SaaS platforms. Properly securing human, agentic AI, and non-human identities at scale means: 🔵 Solving both the authorization AND authentication problems (not just one or the other). 🔵 Establishing an agent registry for complete lifecycle visibility and contextual human-in-the-loop approvals. 🔵 Turning #ZSP into operational reality via dynamic, ephemeral privileges created and enforced in real time. Stop relying on the "observe first, secure second" model. Architect security directly into your identity and access processes. 📖 Read the full post: https://bit.ly/41liyjm #AISecurity #CloudSecurity #Cybersecurity #AgenticAI

When agents can talk directly to your apps through an MCP server, everything changes. Instead of a human jumping between Salesforce, Airtable, etc... an agent can do it autonomously: Summarize call transcripts for target accounts from Gong Pass those summaries to Inflection to create custom segments Draft a target account campaign based on these custom segments No brittle integrations. No copy-paste workflows. No “please log in and click this button.” The agent just acts — safely, deterministically, and across systems via multiple MCP servers.

Cyberattacks are up 37% and HALF now result in breaches. So what’s changing, and how can you stay ahead? NetApp SVP & GM Gagan Gulati sat down with cybersecurity expert Shira Rubinoff to talk through: - Why cyber resilience is now a boardroom priority - How ransomware is evolving and targeting data itself - The double-edged sword of AI in cybersecurity - Why clean, trusted data is your best defense Where others stop at detection, NetApp goes beyond detection, building resilience into your data itself. Get ahead of the threat. Watch the conversation: https://bit.ly/3XONpTJ
