Digital identity management in the context of Agentic Artificial Intelligence presents unique challenges and requires a radical evolution of some basic concepts of digital identity management as currently implemented.
The widespread adoption of generative artificial intelligence for agent creation requires a conceptual evolution of the underlying ideas and implementation strategies of digital identity management.
In this talk, we will explore why identity management as it currently exists cannot meet the security and privacy requirements for large-scale use, posing new and difficult-to-solve problems.
We will delve deeper into the topic, seeking to understand the profound differences between digital identity, understood as an alter ego of the identity of individuals, and the identity of intelligent agents, relationships, and the management of operational authorization assignments.
We will discover that Open Source already offers some solutions, such as PermGuard, capable of evolving the concepts of authorization attribution towards agenetic entities, and can and must play an essential role in the path of adopting AI in a secure and confidential manner.
