Permission isn't purpose: Intent-based authorization in Omnigent
Omnigent introduces intent-based authorization, separating permission from purpose in agentic AI
Databricks' Omnigent system is evolving its security model to distinguish between what an agent is permitted to do versus what it intends to do, building on previously introduced contextual policies. This intent-based authorization approach addresses a critical challenge in agentic AI: preventing agents from misusing legitimate permissions. The pattern matters as it signals an emerging architectural standard for governing autonomous AI actions in enterprise environments.
