The TopCat AI Signal Report
Today’s executive action plan
Here is the TopCat action plan for today.
1. Audit machine credentials
Within the next 30 days, inventory:
• AI agents.
• Service accounts.
• API keys.
• OAuth tokens.
• CI/CD credentials.
• Cloud workload identities.
• Database connections.
• MCP server credentials.
• Vendor integrations.
For each one, identify:
• Who owns it.
• What system issued it.
• What data and actions it can access.
• Whether it is shared.
• Whether it has an expiration date.
• Whether it can be revoked immediately.
Start with any credential that can modify data, export information, deploy code, change permissions, or initiate payment.
