Overview
AI is no longer just a tool - it is an actor within enterprise systems. AI agents now provision infrastructure, trigger deployments, and access sensitive environments with minimal human oversight. In many cases, these systems operate with significant privilege but limited identity governance.
This webinar explores how organisations can adapt their security models to treat AI agents as identities. By embedding Zero Trust, least privilege, and strong identity controls directly into platform architecture, security teams can shift from reactive policy oversight to proactive, automated enforcement.
Discussion Points:
The Rise of Autonomous Privilege How AI agents are reshaping identity risk inside modern enterprises.
Identity-Centric Security for Machine Actors Governing AI through strong authentication, access segmentation, and trust boundaries.
Platform Engineering as a Security Control Embedding enforcement mechanisms directly into infrastructure.
Scaling AI Without Expanding Risk Ensuring AI adoption does not create uncontrolled identity sprawl.
