Product Manager in Microsoft Security team. Focusing on Identity and Network Access, Zero Trust

Stronger AI deployments start with understanding risk in context. Our Microsoft Security team and NVIDIA outline five risk categories for open-weight models: msft.it/6017aIrJ5 I value the emphasis on evaluating the model and surrounding system.

Cross-domain #OAuth token exchange does not remove multi-provider risk or dual client registration. It only removes the boundary prompt while wiring a silent compromise path across your identity estate. dev.to/astaykov/to-exchange-…
22
An AI agent kill switch is a procedure, not token revocation. Stopping #AIAgents means blocking model and tool paths, containing execution and verifying the result; an #APIGateway is one enforcement point, not the whole procedure. dev.to/astaykov/the-ai-agent…

More efficient AI infrastructure can support increasingly demanding workloads. Our EVP of Cloud + AI, Scott Guthrie, shares how we’re approaching that challenge: msft.it/6015aSyyv Maia 300 is designed for long-context reasoning and multi-step agentic tasks.

#A2A standardizes how agents communicate. It does not replace authorization. In v3 of my #AWS #AgentCore, Blueprint 2 uses #EntraAgentID scopes and app roles to separate delegated tools from autonomous chat. dev.to/astaykov/agent-to-age…

TLS protects each hop, not the trust boundary. A gateway can inspect prompts before they reach a model. Unsanctioned #GenAI is a #CyberSecurity problem because the organization no longer controls the data lifecycle. dev.to/astaykov/encryption-i…
34
Admin consent delegation is not a trade-off between a central queue and broad directory roles. #MicrosoftEntra app consent policies can bound a custom role to an approved permission envelope, so #AIAgents scale without multiplying standing privilege. dev.to/astaykov/flexibility-…
37
Microsoft Graph least privilege is not just a smaller permission. #MicrosoftGraph consent and #MicrosoftEntra ownership are separate control planes. If you govern only scopes, owners can still change an application's blast radius. dev.to/astaykov/microsoft-gr…

An AWS-hosted #EntraAgentID does not need an Entra client secret. With #WorkloadIdentity federation, AWS STS issues a short-lived assertion that Entra validates before the Agent ID token exchange. dev.to/astaykov/how-an-aws-h…

Consent is the start of agent authorization, not the whole model. With #Entra #AgentID, user assignment, #ConditionalAccess, app roles, group claims and access packages govern different boundaries. dev.to/astaykov/authorizatio…

An API gateway that mints identity is an authorization server, whether you govern it as one or not. Count it, govern it, then fund getting it out of the identity business. dev.to/astaykov/your-api-gat…
