"The security perimeter is changing. It’s not just about where your people sit anymore. It’s about all the actors – human and non-human – operating within it. With the UK’s ambitions to become a global AI superpower, organisations that treat non-human identity as a governance foundation (not an infrastructure afterthought) will be the ones actually ready to scale AI safely."
