Governing the Invisible Workforce: The AI Agent Identity Crisis

Non-human identities now vastly outnumber human users, with recent estimates showing up to an 82-to-1 disparity in enterprise environments. The rapid adoption of autonomous AI agents amplifies this crisis, as these agents utilize compound identities and inherited "invisible browser" sessions to operate at machine speed, easily bypassing traditional security controls.
