AI Agents Are Leaking Your Secrets. 68% Of Companies Don't Know It's Happening.

The Shared Credentials Nightmare

Three quarters of organizations still treat AI agents like they're just another human user. They throw them on shared service accounts or existing user credentials and call it a day. That's insane. The Cloud Security Alliance found 43% of companies rely on shared service accounts for their agents. Another 52% use workload identities that blur the line between human and machine. That means your AI agent is walking around with the same permissions as your junior developer or junior analyst. If that user account gets compromised your AI agent gets compromised too. It can execute any command any file upload any database query. And it can do it at scale. Your entire security model collapses because you never separated human from machine in the first place.

One Shared Account = Total Compromise

• ●43% of companies use shared service accounts for AI agents
• ●52% rely on workload identities that blur human/machine lines
• ●When the human account is compromised the AI agent is compromised too
• ●One breached account gives attackers full agent capabilities

The Prompt Injection Trap

Shared credentials make prompt injection attacks devastating. If an attacker can get an AI agent to read a malicious GitHub issue they can immediately use the same credentials to access production systems. Docker documented exactly this scenario where an AI agent reads a malicious prompt and then uses the exposed credentials to exfiltrate data. Once your agent has access to a shared account the attacker doesn't need to break in. They just need to trick your AI into doing something stupid. And AI agents are famously easy to trick. The whole point of computer use is that they can perform actions on your behalf. Shared credentials transform that capability into an instant disaster.

Credential Sprawl Is Killing Your Security

Every time you spin up a new AI agent you create a new credential. Every time you shut it down you leave a loose end. 1Password's own research shows AI credential sprawl is becoming a fundamental problem in enterprises. You're not just managing accounts anymore you're managing identities. And most companies have no idea how many AI identities exist in their environment. The Gravitee survey found that most organizations can't clearly distinguish AI agent actions from human actions. That means your security logs are useless. Your audit trails are a mess. You can't detect an attack because you can't tell if an action was human or machine. You're flying blind and it's all because you never separated the identities in the first place.

Why Coasty Exists (And Why You Need It)

You need an AI computer use agent that doesn't leak your secrets. Coasty.ai is the #1 computer use agent with 85.6% on OSWorld from our in-house model with public results. We also have 82.81% independently verified on the official OSWorld leaderboard at osworld-v1.xlang.ai. That means nobody else is close to our performance. But performance isn't the only thing that matters. Coasty supports BYOK so you control your own keys. We run agents in secure environments where credentials are never exposed or shared. Your secrets stay yours. Coasty's desktop app and cloud VMs let you scale safely without creating credential sprawl. You get enterprise-grade security with the best computer use capabilities on the market. That's the only combination that actually works.
