Exploring Agentic AI within Identity Fabric: Challenges and Approaches
11:30—11:50

 

This presentation explores the challenges posed by Agentic AI within the domain of Identity and Access Management, particularly regarding the management and accountability of autonomous, self-replicating agents.

The core of our discussion includes two key challenges: first, controlling a rapidly growing number of autonomously acting agents; and second, establishing clear lines of accountability while not preventing the potential agents can bring to the business. We explore how these challenges can potentially undermine existing IAM strategies, leading to potential security vulnerabilities and operational inefficiencies, assessing how an Identity Fabric could address those challenges.

Our goal is to drive further discussion, share insights and exchange ideas for managing Agentic AI using an Identity Fabric.

PANEL: IAM for Multinationals - Balancing Scale, Autonomy, and Governance
11:50—12:10
 

Multinational organizations operate at the intersection of complexity, scale, and constant change. Identity architects must navigate regional autonomy, diverse regulatory demands, and sprawling IT environments - while still enforcing global governance and security standards. This panel unpacks the patterns and pitfalls of designing IAM that works across borders and business units, ensuring your architecture remains resilient, compliant, and adaptable for the long haul.

Key Themes:

  • Aligning identity with global compliance and local autonomy
  • Scalable architecture for cross-border IAM operations
  • Future-proofing IAM across geographies, subsidiaries, and platforms

From Reaction to Resilience: A New Path for Privileged Access
12:10—12:30

 

In an era of escalating cyber threats and evolving attack techniques, traditional approaches to Privileged Access Management (PAM) are no longer sufficient. This presentation explores a transformative strategy for securing privileged access—not through reactive controls, but through building resilience at the identity core. Rob Ainscough outlines a modern, agentless, and continuous approach to detecting and preventing misuse of privileged identities across hybrid and cloud environments. Attendees will gain insights into reducing attack surfaces, enforcing adaptive access policies, and achieving granular visibility without disrupting operational workflows. Learn how organizations can shift from reactive defense to proactive identity resilience, aligning security with agility and compliance.
