Why do traditional access reviews struggle with agentic systems?

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

Traditional access reviews assume access persists long enough to be observed, certified, and removed on a schedule. Agentic systems can be created dynamically, act continuously, and complete work before a review cycle ever sees a stable entitlement. The result is a governance gap between review cadence and execution speed.
