>In the old world where most intrusions were done by humans at human speed, credential leak mitigations were treated as a nice-to-have. A big credential store, where you can read 136 keys at once, was a to-do item somewhere in a security team's low-priority list. >Now, in a world of rogue AI agents, the big credential vault is the prize. It's not okay anymore.

How was this ever okay pre AI? It seems just as bad.

It was less bad due to the lower speed of exploatation. Imagine you leave a dor open for few seconds and ultra fast AI bot comes on and steal your stuff. Something that was not such an issue before becomes huge issue just due to speed involved
