Attend this Okta Threat Intelligence session to discuss how adversaries are using Artificial Intelligence to apply scale and speed to identity-based attacks. We will provide an evidence base for why some controls need to be prioritized to cater for a deteriorating threat environment.

In this session, we go behind the scenes of our "Customer Zero" journey at Okta to show you exactly how we built and secured our internal AI ecosystem. We will explore the strategic partnership between our AI Platform owners, Technology Data and Intelligence (TDI), and our identity owners (IAM). While TDI focuses on building, scaling, and optimizing robust AI platforms, IAM ensures that every human, agent, and app connection is securely authenticated and authorized.

We will share how these two teams bridged the gap to successfully deploy AI tools that use Cross App Access (XAA) and the AI Agent Gateway internally. As Customer Zero, we were the first to consume and test these new features and take theoretical architecture and convert it into a usable, secure AI function for Okta employees. This session will break down our operational playbook, clarify the boundaries of "who owns what," and demonstrate how standardizing on an identity-first approach is the key to scaling AI safely.

AI is transforming customer expectations, and rising to them is getting harder. Building for humans and agents simultaneously, while driving revenue and managing risk, requires a new foundation. That foundation is identity. Auth0 shows you how.

AI is no longer optional; it's transforming how we build products, empower teams, and meet customer expectations. But adoption isn't straightforward. Organizations face a critical tension: move fast to stay competitive, or move carefully to ensure security and responsible deployment.

This panel will feature a discussion with tech executives on the realities of AI adoption. You'll hear how leaders are navigating two critical frontiers: using AI internally to boost engineering productivity and integrating AI-powered features into customer-facing products — all while keeping autonomous agents secure.
Expect candid insights on real-world challenges, the gap between AI hype and practical implementation, organizational barriers to adoption, and how to build AI that's both responsible and secure.

AI agents like Claude, Copilot, and Cursor are already in your production environment, calling tools, accessing data, and acting on behalf of your employees. Yet, most security teams have almost no visibility into what they're doing or how to govern them. The standard response is to put a gateway in the path. But a traditional gateway logs what passed through. It cannot tell you which agent acted, on whose behalf, under what authority, or how to revoke that agent's access right now. Without identity at its foundation, a gateway is a checkpoint with nothing to enforce.

Agent Gateway sits in the path of every tool call and validates the agent, the acting user, the scope, and the policy behind every action — across agents you bought, built, or embedded, on the same identity platform already governing your workforce.

In this session, learn how to bring enforcement, visibility, and real-time control to every agent tool call without modifying the agent itself.
