Session description

Speaker: Pablo Schmücker, Justin Szczepaniak 

Agentic AI represents the next evolution of artificial intelligence. Unlike traditional AI systems that primarily generate content or respond to queries, AI agents can make autonomous decisions, execute actions, interact with external tools and systems, and complete complex multi-step tasks with minimal human involvement. While these capabilities unlock significant opportunities for productivity and automation, they also introduce entirely new attack surfaces and security challenges.

From prompt injection and tool abuse to excessive permissions, data exposure, and unintended agent behavior, organizations must address a new class of risks that arise when AI systems move beyond recommendations and begin taking actions on behal ...
