As Agentic AI reshapes the workforce, it creates a massive, overlooked attack surface: the non-human insider threat.​In this session, we will dismantle the myth that AI agents are merely tools and treat them as what they truly are: identities. We will explore the current chaotic state of AI access, expose the dangers of unbridled machine permissions, and provide a concrete IAM framework. Join us to learn how to apply human-grade rigor—Zero Trust, lifecycle management, and least privilege—to your silicon workforce.
