When AI Agents Inherit Your Identity Dark Matter

Enterprises can see less of their identity environment every year, and agentic AI is about to make it dramatically worse. Roy Katmor, CEO and Co-Founder of Orchid Security, joins Alan Shimel on TechStrong TV to walk through Orchid's 2026 Identity Gap report — a snapshot of what they call the "identity dark matter" hiding inside modern enterprises. Only 57% of enterprise applications are actually visible to a central identity provider, 67% of non-human identities authenticate locally outside any IdP, 40% of accounts are orphaned, and 70% of apps carry excessive privilege. Now layer on agentic AI — fast, improvising, and acting on behalf of humans and services — and the traditional "who has access" question collapses. Roy explains why identity has to move from static entitlements to continuous, intent-aware delegation, and how Orchid's identity orchestration and control plane is built to operationalize that across humans, non-humans, and AI agents.
