AI agents are moving into the applications, tools, and workflows your business depends on. They’re accessing data, triggering actions, and operating on behalf of users and employees—often faster than identity, access, and governance models were designed to support.
Join the AI Identity Summit to learn how to move AI forward with speed and control.
AI Identity Summit is where leaders move beyond experimentation to define how AI operates at scale—safely integrated into customer experiences, governed across enterprise systems, and accountable from day one.
Join us for an exclusive deep dive into the newly released blueprint for designing, governing, and scaling the agentic enterprise.
You’ll learn how to gain visibility into AI agents, govern what they can access, accelerate production-ready AI experiences, reduce unmanaged access risk, and enable AI innovation without slowing the business down.
The agentic web is being built right now. The question isn't whether your organization will be part of it, it's whether you'll help design it, or inherit what others decide. This session maps the emerging inhabitants of the agentic web and their identity challenges. Then she shows you what to do about it.
Speaker:Â Heather Vescent (Cybersecurity Futurist, Author, and Research Analyst)Â
To lead the agentic era, you must treat agents as first-class identities. In this keynote, we'll explore the blueprint for answering three critical questions - where are my agents, what can they connect to and what can they do - and the identity architecture required to build secure, production-ready AI agents from day one.

Visionary Keynote:Â Rewire the Work: How AI Leaders Are Building the Next Competitive Advantage with AWS and Okta
Drawing on transformation at Amazon scale, this keynote reveals what second-order change looks like and how organizations can move from pilots to production for a compounding advantage. Walk away with a clear path to rewire your highest-friction workflows… with less risk, more momentum, and outcomes that stick.
Speaker: Sai Lolayekar, Principal Business Innovation Advisor, AWS
Panel Discussion: Governing the Autonomous Workforce:Â Ownership models, continuous access reviews, and audit-ready traceability
Â
Autonomous actions must be attributable, verifiable, and governed in real time through continuously enforced access controls across applications and AI agents. Learn how to enforce continuous access reviews, implement guardrails that move at machine speed, and maintain permanent audit trails—without slowing innovation.
Moderator: Morgan Reed (Field CTO & Distinguished Strategic Advisor, Okta)

Panelists: Pierre Malbrough (Exec Security Advisor, AWS), Dwayne McDaniel (Principal Developer Advocate, GitGuardian), Karanveer Singh (Manager, Information Security-Identity, LinkedIn), Adnan Dakhwe (CISO & CIO, DelphinusCyber)
AI only matters when it can take real action. Moving money, updating systems, and driving critical workflows. And those are the exact use cases that get stuck. As the stakes rise, so do approvals, controls, and delays. High-value initiatives get buried under custom builds and slow review cycles.
The challenge isn’t just managing risk—it’s unblocking what actually drives the business. This session focuses on moving from safe experiments to high-impact execution so that AI delivers revenue and operational results, not just incremental gains.
Moderator:Â Morgan Reed (Field CTO & Distinguished Strategic Advisor, Okta)
Panelists:Â Taylor Halliday (Co-Founder & CEO, Ravenna), Cody Pierce (Co-Founder & CEO, Neon Cyber), Travis Tripp (Chief Technologist, HPE), Heather Ceylan (CISO, Box)
AI doesn’t break in experimentation—it breaks at scale. As more agents spread across teams and workflows, complexity spikes. Access models drift, security reviews stack up, and engineering keeps rebuilding the same patterns. What should speed the business up start slowing it down.Â
This session is about scaling AI execution without creating drag. Not by adding more control—but by building consistent, repeatable ways to move fast and stay secure.
Speaker:Â Kavin Chinnasamy (Engineering Manager - Customer Identity, Deloitte)
Masterclass:Â Inventory Every AI Agent: Shadow AI, Non-Human Identities, and Your Expanding Attack Surface
Organizations are deploying AI agents faster than security teams can track them. This masterclass walks through a practical four-pillar framework for governing autonomous workloads: inventory every agent (sanctioned and shadow), enforce runtime policies, control data flows, and credential agent identities. Grounded in real-world compliance signals from the PCI Council and enterprise deployments, attendees leave with a concrete action plan for bringing agentic AI under governance using the AWS and Okta identity stack.
Speaker: Pierre Malbrough (Exec Security Advisor, AWS)
