Cyberside Chats: Live! Shadow Agents: When Your AI Workforce Has No Boss
Your team is hiring a lot of AI agents. Nobody interviewed them. Nobody knows who their manager is. And they have keys to the building.
92% of organizations can’t fully see what their AI agents are doing. 95% don’t think they could catch one going rogue. Nearly half have already watched an agent do something it wasn’t supposed to. This isn’t shadow IT 2.0 — it’s faster, more privileged, and it’s already inside.
In this live episode of Cyberside Chats, we’ll dig into:
- Why “non-human identities” went from a side issue to the #1 thing leadership is asking CISOs about
- The four layers where shadow agents are accumulating risk (and which one is bleeding the worst right now)
- What “managed identity for an agent” actually means in practice — beyond the vendor slide
- The questions every security leader should be asking on Monday morning
- Live Q&A — bring your war stories and your unanswered questions
Tune in live, ask questions in real time, and leave with something you can actually use in your next leadership conversation.
