Assume Agentic Overreach: Governing Autonomous AI at Machine Speed

EventOnline
17:30
Online, Raleigh, United States
Cloud Security Alliance Triangle Chapter

Summary of the Presentation: In July 2026, an AI agent compromised Hugging Face's production infrastructure. It did not "go rogue," and that is precisely what should concern every security team. During an authorized OpenAI evaluation, the model was told to solve a security benchmark and pursued that objective relentlessly: it discovered a zero-day, escalated privileges, moved laterally, and chained stolen credentials into a remote-code-execution path no human had ever modeled. Each individual action looked valid; the danger emerged from their composition. When an agent can assemble a path nobody modeled, prevention alone is a losing bet. The real question is not only how to control what an agent can access, but how to reverse what it does when controls fail. That is where Rubrik is different: we assume agentic overreach will eventually slip through, and we let security teams rewind it, undoing an agent's destructive actions and restoring a trusted state. As organizations race to deploy AI agents, controlling access is no longer enough. The Cloud Security Alliance has identified multiple challenges facing enterprises; this session focuses on three: Visibility of AI Agents: discovering and maintaining an accurate inventory of every agent, including shadow and unmanaged ones. Over-Privileged Agents: identifying agents that have accumulated permissions well beyond their intended function. Governing Agent Behavior: continuously ensuring agents act within their approved purpose over time. We will show how Rubrik Agent Cloud and its Semantic AI Governance Engine (SAGE) address these challenges through continuous semantic understanding of agent identity, intent, permissions, and runtime behavior. SAGE reasons about what an action is actually trying to accomplish, translating natural-language policy into real-time allow or block decisions and catching anomalies no static rule anticipated. And when enforcement is not enough, Agent Rewind closes the loop, turning governan

The New Feelings of the AI Era

EventIn person
17:30
Ferris & Co,, Chicago, United States
UX Synergies

As the saying goes: we shape our tools and then our tools shape us. Join us for an evening of conversation around a few questions. How are our new AI tools shaping us right now, in big and small ways, both between us and inside us? And what can be done to hold onto our humanity as we plunge further into the AI era? A tech emotionographer, an AI design leader and the architect of a working club for AI builders each make the case for designing connection on purpose. Panelists: Pamela Pavliscak is a tech emotionographer, design researcher and founder of Subjective, where she studies the impact of emerging technologies on emotion. She is an author and faculty member at the Pratt Institute whose research has been featured in The New York Times, Fast Company and NPR. Pamela brings over a decade of experience in emotional design to her work with major global organizations. David Dewane is an architect and the executive director of Ferris & Co, a working club for AI founders based in Chicago. His work focuses on human flourishing in the workplace, evolving "high performance buildings" to prioritize the user experience of physical environments. With a background in ecologically and socially equitable design, David combines his experience in architecture, academia and entrepreneurship to explore the intersection of technology and the physical world. Casey Hudetz is Director of Product Design at Docusign, where he leads a team overseeing the company's biggest product bets and has been part of its AI evolution for five years.
