Anatomy of an AI Breach: A Real-life Look at Agentic Access Control Failure

AI agents are rapidly evolving from simple tools into a new “digital workforce,” integrated into our most critical business processes and acting autonomously across an expanding operational landscape. But what happens when one (or more) of them goes rogue?

This session deconstructs the anatomy of these new AI-driven security failures. We will look at traditional approaches and the gaps left across the entire AI lifecycle, grounding the analysis in a case study from a Fortune 500 professional services company that extended its strong authorization framework across its agentic AI enterprise systems. We will then share a practical playbook: a modern, Zero Trust framework for governing the entire AI workflow and overcoming the dangerous authorization blind spot that leaves many organizations exposed.
