Who Let the Agents Out? Your client_id Is Not An Identity
Learn why API keys are not enough for agent identity and how Dapr and Diagrid Catalyst enforce scoped delegation, least-privilege access control, and auditability across agents and MCP servers.

About this webinar
Your agents are running. Your MCP servers are connected. Now ask yourself: who actually authorized that tool call?
Most agent systems in production today authenticate with static API keys stuffed into environment variables. No runtime-asserted identity. No scoped delegation. No auditability. This is the same credential sprawl that nearly broke microservices a decade ago — and we're repeating it at speed with AI.
This webinar covers the identity crisis at the heart of modern agentic systems, why it matters for both agents and the MCP servers they call, and what a proper access control model looks like in practice. We'll walk through how Dapr and Diagrid Catalyst provide the workload identity and policy enforcement layer that agents and MCP servers are missing today — covering short-lived credentials, scoped delegation chains, and auditability across agent-to-agent and agent-to-MCP-server calls.
Inside the session:
- Why AI agents face the same identity crisis microservices did — and why the stakes are higher this time
- The failure modes that emerge without agent identity: privilege escalation, secret sprawl, jailbreak blast radius, and provenance gaps
- What a full delegation chain looks like: user → agent → MCP server → resource
- How Dapr workload identity and Diagrid Catalyst enforce least-privilege access control across agents, MCP servers and tools in production
Who this is for:
- Platform engineers and DevSecOps teams securing agent infrastructure
- Developers building multi-agent systems or integrating MCP servers into production workflows
- CISOs and security architects evaluating governance and auditability for agentic AI
- Engineering leaders defining the identity and access control strategy for their AI platform
