### 2.4 Access Control
- Access to secrets **must** follow least privilege and, where supported, just-in-time elevation.
- All secret retrieval **must** be logged (who, what, when).
- Human access to production secrets **should** be exceptional and time-bound; services **must** authenticate via managed identity/certificate rather than a retrieved static secret where the platform supports it.

- **AI Agent (Autonomous) accounts** (per [Authentication Policy §3.1](authentication_policy.md)) **must not** hold a static long-lived credential equivalent to a service account password. Agent credentials **must** be short-lived and scoped to the task/session, expiring automatically at task completion — a compromised agent session should not yield a standing key an attacker can reuse after the session ends.
### 2.5 Kill-Chain Secrets (Barbell Principle)
Secrets gating existential systems — PKI/CA root passphrases, backup/DR encryption master keys, break-glass vault master credentials, HSM activation secrets — **must** receive protection disproportionate to ordinary secrets:
