Deconfusing AI-based IAM & IAM for AI Capabilities
Exploring the distinctions between AI-based Identity and Access Management and IAM for AI capabilities. How do these concepts intersect, and what are their implications?
Read moreSecuring access to generative capabilities.
Access control has proven central to the resilience of digital infrastructure, with security policies created for sensitive documents, cloud resources, and more. We extend this paradigm by natively handling AI capabilities as tangible resources, helping organizations deploy agents and assistants with confidence.
Existing safeguards are broken.
Current methods of managing access to generative capabilities are either too permissive or too restrictive. For example, guardrails are susceptible to jailbreaks, while unlearning leaves value on the table. We highlight a blindspot of the status quo: many capabilities can be used for both good and bad.
Misuse is an access problem.
We propose a new approach for managing access to generative capabilities, where the messy, complex issue of misuse is reduced to a familiar access problem. Building on decades of research in information security, we delegate decisions about access to a external, battle-tested access control module.
Mind the paradigm shifts.
From mere assistants to autonomous agents, and from playful experiments to emerging standards, the development of generative capabilities is evolving rapidly. We develop timeless infrastructure meant to strategically accommodate such paradigm shifts, and catalyze yet others.
We are grateful for the inspiring organizations supporting our work.
