Christina.J (Okta) asked a question.
We are excited to announce an upcoming Ask Me Anything (AMA) event on Wednesday, August 5, 2026! This session focuses on Okta for AI Agents (now Generally Available!), our dedicated solution for securing non-human identities, machine-to-machine (M2M) architectures, and autonomous workflows.
Why Participate?
As AI transitions from sandboxes into autonomous enterprise workflows, traditional password and MFA models no longer apply. While 91% of organizations have adopted AI, 88% have already experienced AI agent security incidents. Whether you're trying to discover shadow AI or manage dynamic API permissions, our team is here to answer your technical questions and help you secure your AI agent architecture.
