The Agent Has Permission. Should It Have the Data?

Why least privilege may need a companion: least context Here’s a funny thing about enterprise AI. We spend a lot of time talking about what an agent should be allowed to do, but much less time talking about what it should be allowed to know. I think that is going to become a much bigger

Why Enterprise AI Keeps Hitting the Read-Only Ceiling

The difficult part starts when an agent stops describing the business and starts changing it Enterprise AI has become very good at telling us what it thinks should happen next.

Real-Time Entity Resolution for Enterprise Data and AI

Entity Resolution at Scale: Merge Duplicates as Data Moves Enterprise data rarely arrives clean. The same customer, supplier or product can exist across multiple systems under different names, IDs or formats. For reporting, this creates inconsistency. For AI and automation, it creates unreliable context. Entity resolution has traditionally been handled through batch processing. But when
