Zero Standing Privilege vs Least Privilege: What's the Difference?

The main difference between Zero Standing Privilege (ZSP) and least privilege is that least privilege limits the amount of access an identity has, whereas ZSP limits both the amount of access and its duration. Least privilege grants every user or machine only the minimum permissions necessary to do its job, but those permissions tend to persist once a task is completed, leaving standing access behind.

The Trillion-Dollar AI Bet Needs a Security Strategy

AI agents have now proven, in the real world, that autonomy without a security model is a liability.

Has security taken a back seat to productivity?

One file can hold dozens of instructions and actions, so anything buried inside travels with it, and the agent follows all of it without asking. Most of those agents run unwatched, so the speed you gained is now exposure nobody in the business is measuring.
