Joseph Valente (Director of PM, Alphabet Security) and Michal Zalewski published in ACM Queue, arguing autonomous agents and accelerating data-access velocity have stretched application-centric zero trust past its breaking point. The proposal makes per-resource and per-method authorization decisions for humans and agents at machine speed, pairing static authorization guarantees with dynamic AI-driven reasoning. The underlying preprint is arXiv 2605.22985 from May; the ACM Queue publication is the new event. (ACM Queue)
