What you'll learn

What makes AI "agentic" and why it changes everything

Understand how autonomous AI agents differ from traditional AI and why existing governance frameworks fall short.

Identify security gaps in AI agent deployments

Spot the biggest risks, missing controls, and governance blind spots before AI agents reach production.

Understand the 7 Layers of Agentic AI Security

Learn a practical framework to govern AI agents from identity and access to monitoring and oversight.

Apply the framework in your organization

Leave with a practical checklist to start governing AI agents in any enterprise or team.

Why this topic matters

An AI agent with tool access is no longer software, it's a non-human actor inside your enterprise. It can be manipulated, hijacked, or simply wrong at scale. This session covers the real attack surface (prompt injection, tool abuse, data exfiltration via agents, permission escalation), the governance controls that actually work (least-privilege tools, dual-LLM patterns, human checkpoints).
