    Databricks Omnigent adds intent-based authorization for AI agents

    Databricks Omnigent has introduced intent-based authorization to enhance the security of AI agents. This feature ensures agents only perform actions aligned with their declared purpose, closing a gap in traditional identity-based authorization systems that attackers can exploit through prompt injection. The system requires human approval for sensitive actions and denies unauthorized ones, with intents defined at design time or approved by a human at session start, impacting developers and architects managing AI agents.
