## AI overview

monday.com security lead Ryan Nigro argues that least privilege can help AI teams move faster by giving each agent only the access it needs, then expanding permissions as results prove out. He recommends rolling out AI incrementally rather than enabling all features and access at once. The same principle applies to employees: role changes can leave people with accumulated permissions, and access should match their duties. The excerpt cites an IBM study estimating that 80% to 90% of breaches stem from human error tied to over-permissioning. The article presents Nigro's perspective and does not detail monday.com's specific implementation.

## Source excerpt

As AI agents spread across enterprise workflows, permission management is becoming one of the most practical levers for keeping them safe. Agents act with the access people give them, so the old problem of sprawling privileges now plays out at machine speed. Governance is often cast as a brake on that momentum, especially as work [...] The post Brakes built for speed: Why least privilege lets monday.com's AI teams move faster appeared first on SiliconANGLE.
