Why Your AI Agent Doesn't Need a Master Key

You're building an agent and it keeps stopping to ask for permissions. So you give it access to everything and move on. That master key feels like a fix, but if you don’t secure the credentials your AI uses, your organization can be left vulnerable: A single compromised prompt can expose your entire data stack. Learn how you can scope and manage agent credentials so you and your team can iterate fast without risking vulnerabilities.
