In this session, we will explore the critical intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and impact on cybersecurity. You’ll gain insights into what AI Security entails, the Security AI Framework, and the various AI Security models shaping today’s landscape. We will examine the key threats and risks associated with AI, and discuss practical strategies to mitigate these challenges through robust security capabilities. We’ll also examine how AI Security reshapes Identity and Access Management (IAM), and what steps organizations can take to stay resilient in this rapidly changing security landscape.

Agentic AI introduces a new IAM challenge: machines that act autonomously across systems. This session presents KBC’s real-world approach to defining agent identities, aligning IAM platforms, and building cross - platform governance. A practical story of how to start small - and scale securely.

In this session, we'll explore why identity-first API design is essential for building systems that scale, moving beyond perimeter security to fine-grained authorization that scales for humans and AI agents alike. We'll look at future-proof API design: Leveraging modern standards (OAuth, OIDC, OpenID Authzen, MCP) with pragmatic patterns that work.
