The Limits of Vaulting AI Agent Credentials

Quick Answer: Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 showed how a prompt-injected AWS AgentCore agent could steal and replay a credential even though it was securely stored in AgentCore Identity. The research exposes a broader problem with AI agent security: protecting credentials at rest and in transit is not enough if they become readable inside the […]

Gartner on Machine IAM: Govern the Identity, Not the Credential

Quick Answer: Machine IAM shifts security from managing credentials as standalone objects to governing the identities of workloads and AI agents directly. That means establishing who or what is requesting access, issuing short-lived authority based on policy, and maintaining ownership and lifecycle context as those identities change. For autonomous agents, that model increasingly extends into runtime, […]

Embracing a Secretless Approach with Akeyless

Key Takeaways Answer Capsule: What Is Secretless Authentication? Secretless authentication is an approach that lets machines, services, and applications authenticate to systems and each other without ever holding a static, storable secret, such as a hardcoded API key or a long-lived certificate. Instead, a workload proves its identity (through a cloud IAM role, a Kubernetes […]

Anthropic’s Latest Threat Report Shows How AI Is Industrializing Secret Theft

Quick Answer: Anthropic’s September 2026 Threat Intelligence Report shows how AI is compressing the path from exposed credential to enterprise compromise. One suspected ShinyHunters affiliate scanned 1.8 million Android apps for hardcoded secrets, while related operators used AI to accelerate reconnaissance, token abuse, data collection, and exfiltration. For defenders, faster secret scanning is only part […]

AI Agents Security in Claude with Akeyless

AI agent security usually stops at protecting credentials, but that's only half the problem. In a live demo with Akeyless, we gave a Claude Code agent full EC2 admin access, then tried to talk it into stopping a production server, even claiming CISO approval. Here's how Agentic Runtime Authority blocked it anyway, and why AI agent security has to govern actions, not just access.
