Webinar: How to Govern AI Agents, Reduce Excessive Access, and Control Shadow AI
AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication
AI agents are rapidly entering production, connecting to apps, APIs, and business systems without the same controls applied to human users. Okta’s Global CISO Insights 2026 report shows only 47% of CISOs can identify every agent, and 80% worry about unreviewed excessive access. The webinar led by Okta’s Matt Immler will teach how to treat agents as first‑class identities, assign ownership, conduct access reviews, and apply identity governance to curb shadow AI. Only 25% of surveyed firms use a purpose‑built framework, while 21% rely on shared credentials.
💡 Why It Matters
- · Strengthening AI agent governance turns a silent security blind spot into a proactive defense, reducing the risk of unchecked access that could enable rapid attacker reconnaissance and identity compromise.
