PANEL: Your AI Agent Is Not a Service Account

PANEL: Your AI Agent Is Not a Service Account

Combined Session
Tuesday, October 06, 2026 15:40—16:00

Treating an AI agent like a workload identity misses what makes it dangerous: it behaves less like a system calling an API and more like a privileged human who never sleeps, never asks twice, and can act on someone else's authority. This panel challenges the instinct to bolt agent governance onto machine-identity tooling built for a different problem.
