And now we have agents. Ev Kontsevoy talks about what it means to have engineers and agents interacting in an environment, and why a focus on actions can be more effective than roles. One of the biggest challenges in securing agents along with all of the other identities that organizations manage is how fragmented that management has become. But a unified engineering view of identities is just a start. Once you're able to shift to a practice where access is granted based on attributes and limited durations, then your environment becomes more resilient to mistakes and unexpected actions, not to mention the security concerns that come with agents acting on their own. Who Is Responsible for an AI Agent's Actions? As AI agents gain the ability to access systems, invoke tools, and take action on behalf of users, organizations need clear frameworks that define responsibility for machine-driven decisions and outcomes. This segment examines how accountability, delegation, and attribution can be established across users, developers, security teams, and business stakeholders. Neha will explore how governance models support transparent, auditable agent-driven workflows while helping organizations manage risk and maintain trust. This segment is sponsored by P0 Security.

The rapid rise of agentic AI and non-human identities is fundamentally reshaping the future of identity security, challenging traditional IAM and PAM models built around predictable human behavior. In this executive interview at Identiverse 2026, Amit Masand discusses how autonomous systems, AI agents, and machine identities are creating new o… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/security-weekly-podcast-network-video-841420/episodes/how-ai-is-reshaping-identity-security-at-the-infrastructure-layer-ev-kontsevoy-neha-duggal-amit-masand-asw-388/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/security-weekly-podcast-network-video-841420/how-ai-is-reshaping-identity-security-at-the-infrastructure-layer-ev-kontsevoy-neha-duggal-amit-masand-asw-388.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
