Everything on Security & Governance

Static permissioning models are inadequate for agents; dynamic, request-based access controls allow agents to self-identify data gaps and request specific permissions, enhancing both security and autonomy.

Impact: Dynamic permissioning reduces the risk of agent drift and security breaches while enabling more flexible and efficient data access for complex tasks.
