Securing the Invisible Workforce: Machines, Agents, and the Future of Identity

The rise of non-human identities - like machines, workloads, service accounts, and autonomous AI agents - is changing the game for digital trust. As these entities start to act, decide, and communicate on their own, our traditional identity and access management models are falling behind. This session, will examine the shift from static machine credentials to adaptive, intent-aware Agentic AI identities and the new governance paradigms they bring. Attendees will get a handle on the evolving risks, necessary controls, and emerging standards driving this change. Ultimately, the talk encourages organizations to rethink identity governance as the foundation of security in our AI-driven world.
