Securing the Agentic Enterprise

Session details

Experience the enterprise of the future, where every identity, including AI agents, can work and thrive — securely. Automatically discovered, each action authorized, and fully managed throughout their lifecycle. The key to making it all happen is AI-first identity security.

Our opening keynote will examine Saviynt's vision for identity security as paradigms shift and AI becomes even more embedded into the very foundation of the modern enterprise.

Product Keynote 12:55 - 1:25 PM

One Identity Fabric, Infinite Actors

Session details

Even as AI has fundamentally reshaped identity programs (not to mention our very enterprises), there is still much work to be done if organizations are to implement AI-native identity security.

Learn how your organization can deliver a single control plane for every identity — human, non-human, and AI — and application and truly make identity the core of AI security.

Ride the AI Wave with Confidence

Session details

Identity security is expanding beyond traditional user access controls to secure human, machine, and agent identities. This session explores the top identity security trends shaping 2026, including the impact of AI, Platformization 2.0, the rise of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for secure interoperability, and the rapid growth of modern machine IAM.

We'll also examine why visibility and intelligence are becoming essential for reducing security blind spots, how AI governance is emerging as a core discipline for building trust in autonomous systems, and the technologies and practices organizations need to prepare for identity-driven security and identity-driven business in the age of AI.

AI Mythbusters: Separating Identity Reality From Hype

Session details

Let's be honest: there's a lot we still don't know about AI and how it's affecting organizations today. We're figuring out all its use cases, still experimenting with how far it can take us, what we need to do to fulfill its potential. What will AI take over? Just how autonomous can (and should) identity be?

This interactive session will ask the questions we've not yet answered as an industry, explore the current state of AI in identity security, and as a group, empower each of us with a clearer picture of the current and future state of AI-powered identity security.
