Is your AI strategy outpacing your ability to secure it? As enterprises move from LLMs to autonomous agents, risk shifts from access to execution, introducing new challenges from Shadow AI to uncontrolled agent behavior. While 84% of executives expect agentic AI to redefine their business, only 6% have a strategy to secure it. This interactive session helps you close that gap. Work with AI security experts to define your risk posture and build a practical 90-day strategy roadmap to move from experimentation to a secure, scalable autonomous enterprise.
Eric Partington
Principal Product Manager
AI is becoming the enterprise workforce, executing tasks at machine speed and shifting risk from access to autonomous action. At the same time, infrastructure has become dynamic—spanning containers, multicloud environments, and high-throughput AI workloads that demand hyperscale enforcement and microperimeter-level control. In this session, see how the Prisma AIRS platform governs agent identity, enforces real-time control across the AI lifecycle, and secures your infrastructure.
Vlaho Djurkovic
Solutions Architect
For years, identity and access management meant managing access, passwords, and privileged accounts — all in silos. What worked for yesterday's organization no longer holds up in today's AI-speed business. As organizations expand across cloud, SaaS, and AI-driven workflows, identity has become the layer that either holds everything together or becomes the biggest liability. This session looks at how Palo Alto Networks and CyberArk are redefining identity not as a point solution, but as a foundational control plane — one that secures every identity with the right level of privilege controls, enforces consistent guardrails across human and machine access, and feeds intelligence across your entire security environment. The result is an architecture where identity isn't just managed, it's a strategic control point for the enterprise.

Director, Technical Product Engineering
AI agents are rapidly joining the workforce as assistants and digital coworkers with access privileges and increasing autonomy. Securing these agents with the right privilege control is a top priority for CISOs and security leaders. Join this session to learn why AI agents should be treated as privileged machine identities that can minim human behavior and how you can extend identity security and privilege controls to this agentic workforce.

Director - Field Technology Office
The security landscape is rapidly changing due to the shrinking lifespan of public TLS certificates, moving from 200 days to an impending 47-day cycle. This transition makes manual renewal processes an operational liability, exponentially increasing the risk of business-impacting service outages as workloads are set to increase twelve-fold. Relying on calendar reminders is no longer a human-scale problem. Surviving this cryptographic reset requires a shift to fully automated, comprehensive visibility and lifecycle management. We introduce Next-Generation Trust Security (NGTS), a native capability of our network security platform. NGTS leverages network-native discovery and agentic automation to manage certificates, effectively shrinking the effort of remediating an expiring certificate from four hours to zero minutes. Gain visibility. Facilitate operational resilience. Build cryptographic agility.
Ana Meneghel
Senior Solutions Engineer
Most organizations manage workforce identity across disconnected tools — one for access management, another for privileged access, another for governance. The gaps between them are where breaches happen.
Join this session to see how a unified platform discovers every identity and entitlement, controls access across the full user journey, and governs privilege so it never outlasts its purpose. One platform. No gaps. Built for the way your workforce actually operates today.

Modern adversaries replace predictable playbooks with machine-generated attack chains that can breach traditional controls in seconds. By targeting agentic tools and AI agents, attackers leverage created blind spots that legacy defenses miss. To stop these threats, your prevention must be as autonomous as the adversary.
In this session, you’ll learn how to:
- Neutralize stealthy attacks in real-time by identifying behavioral anomalies unique to automated threats.
- Expose attack chains by correlating cross-domain signals into a single high-priority incident.
- Secure the agentic ecosystem by closing blind spots in AI agents, browser extensions, and agentic tools
See how the combination of Cortex XDR and Koi Security breaks the kill chain of the most advanced AI-driven attacks.

Sr Product Marketing Manager, AppSec
Your cloud security must evolve from simply seeing risks to autonomously stopping them. As Frontier models like Mythos autonomously chain vulnerabilities in minutes, the manual handoffs between siloed teams create the very delays attackers exploit. To survive this shift, you must move to an agentic CNAPP that bridges the gap between code, cloud, and the SOC, transforming your defense from passive visibility into real-time action.
In this session, you’ll learn how to:
- Unify security workflows by connecting AppSec and cloud security with real-time SOC telemetry.
- Prevent risk before production by identifying and remediating issues before they ship.
- Move from visibility to action with autonomous agents that remediate risks in real-time.
See how an agentic CNAPP evolves your operating model to outpace AI-driven vulnerability discovery and exploitation.
