If an AI agent logs in as you, uses your credentials and does something you never intended, what will the logs say? Probably that you did it.
That question kept coming back during our latest NYC CxO Security Forum, which we hosted this time at the DLA Piper Offices. We brought together security, technology, risk and legal leaders to work through what happens when non-human identities start doing considerably more than running a scheduled job.
Identity is evolving rapidly as organizations navigate non-human identities, AI agents, and increasingly complex access environments. In this CxO Security Forum discussion, cybersecurity leaders explored the challenges of managing identity at enterprise scale, reducing standing privileges, and adapting security controls for an AI-driven world. The takeaway: strong identity governance, clear accountability, and visibility into every identity are essential to securing what comes next.
The Nashville Executive Forum did exactly what the format was intended to do: get a relatively small group of healthcare security leaders past introductions and into a candid peer discussion about the problems they are actually wrestling with. The evening started with each participant briefly describing their role, background and the most pressing issue on their plate. From there, the group previewed the Top 10 issues identified through Health-ISAC’s CISO Summit pre-survey, before spending the bulk of the evening going deeper on several of the issues that generated the most energy in the room.
The CxO Security Forum brought together cybersecurity executives during Black Hat USA for an exclusive, invitation-only experience focused on meaningful connections, candid conversation, and peer-driven insight. Designed as a break from the traditional conference environment, the event gave senior security leaders an opportunity to connect with fellow practitioners, exchange perspectives, and enjoy an evening of networking in a relaxed setting.
Senior cybersecurity, risk, technology, and business leaders gathered at the 3M Open for a candid discussion on third-party risk, trust, and resilience. The conversation explored how organizations can move beyond traditional questionnaires and compliance checklists to better measure risk, validate trust, and make more informed business decisions.
