That assumption is about to break. As organizations deploy autonomous AI agents, corporate networks are rapidly filling with non-human entities that don't just follow static scripts—they reason, delegate, and chain actions across systems in ways their creators never explicitly authorized. Traditional OAuth scopes, session tokens, and long-lived flows are completely unequipped to handle entities that think for themselves. When the "user" is an intelligent agent, current identity security fails entirely. This session cuts through the noise to analyze the critical vulnerabilities emerging in early deployments and introduces the core architectural pillars needed to fix them. Bridging the gap between bleeding-edge AI research and practical enterprise governance, we will explore how to rebuild trust in a machine-to-machine world **Speaker: Vijayent Kohli** Vijayent Kohli is a Principal Cybersecurity Engineer specializing in architecting resilient, identity-centric security solutions for AI & autonomous systems at Fortune-scale enterprises. Over a career spanning major technology and enterprise organizations including Microsoft, PayPal, Oracle and Ford, he has architected scale-ready identity and access management (IAM) infrastructure and co-invented patented fallback systems designed to maintain AI decision-making continuity during production failures. An active speaker and researcher, Vijayent focuses on the intersection of production AI, adversarial risk, and automated security posture management. His talks draw directly on practical, enterprise-scale engineering experience rather than theory.
