Coding Agents are an identity problem in 2026

Coding agents are changing how enterprises think about identity, access and authorisation. In this Security Strategist clip, Jason Casey, CEO and Co-Founder of Beyond Identity, joins analyst Richard Stiennon to explain why AI coding agents create new security gaps around nonhuman identity, agent behaviour, tool calls, session activity and real-time visibility. Once agents can run code, call tools and act with delegated human power, identity can no longer be built only around users. Enterprises need continuous, context-aware authorisation tied to the environment the agent is acting inside. Topics covered: • AI coding agents • Nonhuman identity • Continuous authorisation • Device-bound credentials • Agent sessions • Tool calls and visibility • Identity security for AI agents Watch more EM360Tech cybersecurity conversations: https://em360tech.com/podcasts/are-your-ai-agents-hidden-attack-surface-rethinking-identity-and-access-agent-era #AIAgents #IdentitySecurity #Cybersecurity
