Should AI agents get least-privilege access to cloud files?
Original: Ask HN: Allow agents access to cloud files with least privilege?
A question circulating among developers asks whether AI agents should be granted access to cloud-hosted files under a least-privilege security model, meaning each agent gets only the minimum permissions needed for its task. The discussion touches on how to sandbox autonomous software, audit its actions, and prevent data leaks as more teams let agents read and write to production storage.
Why now: As AI agents become widely deployed, developers are actively debating how to secure their access to sensitive cloud data.
