The Excessive Access Problem

You're Accountable for AI Permissions You Didn't Approve and Can't See.

AI tools silently accumulate OAuth scopes that far exceed their function. AI Permission Sprawl Remediation closes that gap.

Broad Permissions by Default

Users click "Allow" without reading scopes. AI tools get admin access when they only need read. Security never sees the approval.

Stale Access Never Expires

OAuth tokens from pilot projects and former employees stay active indefinitely. Access accumulates in gaps between HR and IT visibility.

No Scope Inventory

Auditors ask what each AI tool can access. You know what's connected. You can't answer what permissions they actually hold.

Privilege Creep Compounds

Every AI update requests additional scopes. Users approve without review. Simple assistants quietly gain write, delete, and export rights.

Manual Remediation Fails

Auditing one integration takes an hour. Auditing hundreds across thousands of users takes a team you don't have.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AI permission sprawl?

AI permission sprawl is the accumulation of excessive OAuth scopes across AI tools.

• AI tools request maximum permissions during setup

• Users approve without security review

• Permissions persist without expiration

• Updates add scopes over time

• Departed employees' integrations stay connected

Every excessive permission is attack surface you're accountable for.

How does Reco identify overprivileged AI tools?

Reco maps every OAuth scope granted to AI tools.

• Discover all AI integrations and permissions

• Categorize scopes: read, write, admin, delete

• Compare grants against actual usage

• Flag access exceeding function

• Prioritize by data sensitivity

The Knowledge Graph shows what each permission enables.

See how Application Discovery works.

Which AI permissions create the most risk?

Certain scopes create disproportionate exposure when compromised.

• Full mailbox: read, send, delete

• File system write and delete

• Admin access to CRM, HR, finance

• Repository admin in code platforms

• User provisioning rights

Reco flags high-risk scopes first.

See AI Powered SaaS Security Insights.

How often should AI permissions be reviewed?

More often than you're doing it now.

• New connections trigger immediate review

• Existing integrations: quarterly minimum

• Escalations require re-approval

• Offboarding includes AI revocation

• Compliance mandates continuous reviews

Reco provides ongoing visibility. No audit scrambling.

Why do AI tools accumulate excessive permissions?

The system defaults to maximum access. Nothing enforces reduction.

• Vendors request broad scopes for every use case

• OAuth flows obscure what's being granted

• Users prioritize productivity over review

• No automated right-sizing after grant

• Revoking risks breaking workflows

Without enforcement, permissions only expand.

How do I remediate without breaking AI tools?

Right-sizing requires knowing what's used, not just granted.

• Track which scopes AI tools actively exercise

• Identify permissions granted but never used

• Remove unused scopes, preserve required access

• Monitor for issues after changes

• Roll back if needed

•Usage data lets you remediate confidently.

How does permission sprawl enable breaches?

Attackers who compromise an AI tool inherit every permission it holds.

• Read access enables exfiltration

• Write enables manipulation

• Admin enables lateral movement

• Cross-app scopes enable pivoting

The Salesloft-Drift breach proved this. Broad OAuth tokens exposed hundreds of organizations.
