It might not be sexy, but everyone uses authorization technology.

Here I sit with the founder/CEO, Jake Moshenko, of https://t.co/k4nTjG67Kw

This video teaches viewers why authorization—the system that determines who or what is allowed to do specific actions—is becoming one of the most critical infrastructure layers in the AI era.

While authorization has traditionally been a back-end enterprise concern, the rise of AI agents, agent swarms, autonomous tools, robotics, and eventually brain-computer interfaces makes it a frontline issue for both businesses and consumers.

The interview explains how authorization is evolving from a “boring IT function” into foundational infrastructure for the agentic future.

What are the nuances of deciding between implementing a policy-based or a Zanzibar-based access control model?

We shared some thoughts on the matter in our latest blog post
