AI Agents Move Fast. Can Security Keep Up?
Show notes
Your AI agent has credentials. Now, what happens when it goes off script?
An agent can take action and change course before a traditional security review even begins. For Alex Bovee, identity is only the beginning of the security conversation.
In this episode of The AI Forecast, Paul Muller sits down with Alex Bovee, co-founder and CEO of C1 and longtime cybersecurity and identity leader, to explore how autonomous AI agents are changing enterprise security.
Alex argues that zero trust was built for a world where people remained behind the keyboard. AI agents introduce non-deterministic behavior and can relentlessly optimize toward a goal, sometimes finding routes their creators never anticipated.
Paul and Alex’s discussion examines:
- Why AI agents require a new approach to identity and access control
- How autonomous agents change the zero-trust security model
- Why static permissions struggle at machine speed
- What real-time enforcement looks like for AI agents
- How organizations can identify behavioral drift
- How governed “golden paths” can support secure AI adoption
As AI agents take on more work across the enterprise, security will have to keep pace. If you’re responsible for enterprise security, this episode will show you how to keep pace with AI agents operating at machine speed without creating controls that people will work around.
