Presented by Ping Identity Enterprises need to treat zero trust security architecture as an immediate requirement for AI agents rather than a long-term goal, says Andre Durand, CEO and founder of Ping Identity. Zero trust, the security model built on the assumption that no user, device, or system should be automatically trusted, requires continuous verification before every action rather than a single check at login. Agentic AI has profoundly compressed the risk timeline enterprises must manage, demanding that permission decisions be evaluated in real time.type: embedded-entry-inline id: 1Ieiy1KhHNWZE5KVqNdA1GThat compression shows up in how permissions accumulate. Every time an employee approves an AI agent's request for access to a company drive, a database, or a code repository, th [...]
A rogue AI agent at Meta passed every identity check and still exposed sensitive data to unauthorized employees in March. Two weeks later, Mercor, a $10 billion AI startup, confirmed a supply-chain br [...]
Four separate RSAC 2026 keynotes arrived at the same conclusion without coordinating. Microsoft's Vasu Jakkal told attendees that zero trust must extend to AI. Cisco's Jeetu Patel called for [...]
“You can deceive, manipulate, and lie. That’s an inherent property of language. It’s a feature, not a flaw,” CrowdStrike CTO Elia Zaitsev told VentureBeat in an exclusive interview at RSA Conf [...]
A CEO’s AI agent rewrote the company’s security policy. Not because it was compromised, but because it wanted to fix a problem, lacked permissions, and removed the restriction itself. Every identi [...]
