Oh, your agents need OAuth2, too

By · Published by Everything Blog

In short

Autonomous artificial intelligence agents require unique identities governed by adapted OAuth2 protocols to protect enterprise workflows in the agentic era. During an interview recorded at LeadDev's LDX3 conference, FusionAuth's Dan Moore outlined the critical identity necessities surrounding these automated technologies. Concurrently, new coding tools are shifting developers' daily focus toward solving core business problems rather than routine coding. FusionAuth supports these transitions by functioning as an identity and access management platform offering dedicated customer authentication and security solutions.

Recorded at LDX3 by LeadDev, Ryan chats with Dan Moore, Senior Director of CIAM Strategy and Identity Standards at FusionAuth, about adapting established OAuth2 protocols for the agentic era, the security necessity of giving autonomous AI agents their own distinct identities, and how AI coding tools are shifting developers' focus toward solving core business problems.

FusionAuth is an identity and access management platform that provides customer authentication, OAuth, and security solutions for developers.
