AI database agents need infrastructure-level tenant scoping for security

AI database agents require robust tenant scoping to prevent unauthorized data access, as relying solely on prompts is insufficient for security. Infrastructure-level controls like approved views, database roles, and row-level security are crucial for enforcing data boundaries. Additionally, tool search functionalities for these agents must prioritize authorization and clearly define tool capabilities and limitations to ensure safe operation. AI
