Microsoft is prioritizing security for AI agents through a zero trust model, ensuring they require secure identification like any employee. Announced during the Build conference, tools such as Microsoft Entra, Purview, and Defender are being extended to cover AI agents created with Microsoft’s tools. The Azure AI Foundry Agent Service aims to support deployment while providing monitoring tools to safeguard against threats. Despite the innovative potential of agentic AI, concerns over security vulnerabilities remain critical in its development.
Microsoft's zero trust security model extends to AI agents, emphasizing that they cannot be trusted by default and require secure identification.
Vasu Jakkal highlighted the importance of providing comprehensive security for AI, based on past lessons and integrated with the principles of the Secure Future Initiative.
With the general availability of Azure AI Foundry Agent Service, companies can deploy agentic AI while ensuring security protocols are in place to mitigate risks.
The emergence of agentic AI offers significant advancements for enterprises, but brings forth new vulnerabilities that security measures like Microsoft Entra aim to tackle.
