AAUTHRIZDENTERPRISE AUTHORITY

RESOURCE · AI AUTHORITY

Always Allow Should Never Mean Always Authorized

Standing MCP permission can outlive the action a human thought they were approving. Persistent technical permission is not persistent enterprise authority.

The development

OX Security reported a test where an Always Allow decision was followed by more sensitive file access without another confirmation in the tested configuration.

The authority gap

A durable tool permission does not authorize every future consequential effect through that tool.

The Authrizd approach

Authrizd binds authority to the exact effect and its material parameters. Standing Permission is not Standing Authority.

Enterprise implication

AI capability should not silently expand enterprise authority. Consequential effects should be independently adjudicated and evidenced before execution.

Put enterprise authority ahead of consequential action.
