“We’re doing the same thing for AI agents that least privilege did for people, except now it must be automatic,” said Benny Lakunishok, CEO and Co-founder of Zero Networks, in the release. “If an agent gets fooled or misused, it should hit a wall almost immediately, not wander around the network looking for something valuable.”
Not another IAM or PAM offering
Rather than competing directly with identity providers or privilege access management platforms, Zero Networks positions Least Agency Enforcement as addressing what happens after an AI agent has already received valid credentials.
According to the company, conventional IAM, PAM, and non-human identity (NHI) platforms primarily govern whether an AI is entitled to receive access. Once an authenticated session begins, however, those tools generally do not control where the agent can move across the network, Boehm argued.
