Agentic AI & Autonomous Identity

How do security teams decide when to remove an employee-installed AI agent?

← Back to all FAQ
By NHI Mgmt Group Editorial Team Updated June 7, 2026 Domain: Agentic AI & Autonomous Identity

Remove it when the agent cannot be tied to a legitimate business need, when it inherits credentials that exceed the task it performs, or when the installation path bypassed governance controls. In practice, the decision should be based on documented access reach, deployment evidence, and whether the owner can justify continued use.
