Presenters Atulpriya Sharma Source OpenSource SecurityCon 2026 Your Most Privileged User Isn’t Human: Securing AI Agents in Production 🤖💡 Ever wonder who’s the most powerful entity in your system today? It’s probably not a human. It’s your AI agent. And while these autonomous digital workers are revolutionizing how we operate, they’re also creating gaps in our security postures that we urgently need to address. Atulpriya Sharma, a Senior Developer Advocate at Improving (formerly InfraCloud), CNCF Ambassador, and co-chair of KubeCon India 2025, recently shed light on this critical challenge. He compellingly argued that our existing security paradigms, built for humans, are simply not ready for the unique nature of AI agents. ...
