/ About this event
Your agent just logged in as you. Booked the travel, moved the money, merged the PR. Who said it could?
AI agents are picking up credentials, permissions, and payment methods, and the identity stack was never built for software that acts on your behalf. Join two candid panels on identity and trust in an agentic world, with security practitioners and the builders handing agents the keys: what breaks first, what actually works, and who's accountable when the user isn't human.
