SECURING AI WITH IDENTITY
I write about agent identity, authorization, secure harnesses, AI workflows, models, and the controls enterprises need to trust autonomous systems.

Agent Identity & Authorization
Designing how agents authenticate, delegate access, and stay inside clear permission boundaries.

Harness & Workflow Security
Securing the orchestration layer that connects prompts, models, tools, memory, and enterprise data.
Building an IAM Agent: Start With the Data, Not the LLM
How I built an IAM agent by treating the data and analytics layer as the source of truth, with skills and LLMs acting as a controlled interface.
# SESSION EVIDENCE
Your Prompt Isn't the Security Boundary
A practical way to think about harness safety when agents can actually execute.
Authorization Beyond Tool Calling
Why enterprise authorization is about capabilities, identity, and resource boundaries, not just tool permissions.
WHAT I WRITE ABOUT
This is where I document the security problems that show up when agentic systems move from demos into real enterprise environments. My focus is identity: how agents authenticate, receive authority, call tools, access data, and leave enough evidence behind for someone to understand what happened.
HOW I USE AI
I use AI as a research assistant, technical sounding board, and editor. The ideas come from my own engineering work, prototypes, and research. I challenge the output, verify technical claims, rewrite heavily, and take responsibility for everything published here.
ONE ARTICLE A WEEK
For the next year, I am publishing one practical article every week. Expect tool reviews, techniques, incident breakdowns, architecture notes, and lessons from things I am actively building. I will include the failure modes and trade-offs, not just the polished diagram at the end.
