They’re back. And they brought a few control challenges with them🤖 Meet Grant, Echo, and Zero. Three machines. Three very different behaviors. See how security leaders respond in CISOs@Work this October. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth

I joined The AI Conference in San Francisco today to talk about a challenge I've spent a lot of time thinking about this year: how do we move faster with AI without creating risks we can't control? What struck me today is how quickly that conversation is changing. AI agents are already in production. The real debate now is how much freedom we give them, and how we stay in control as that freedom grows. We've spent decades building security around predictable human behavior. Agents changed that equation almost overnight. They make decisions, choose their own path, and act at a speed and scale no person can match. Instead of slowing them down, we need to be much more precise about the authority we give them. Know what they can access, what they can do with it, and whether that still holds in the moment. Every access decision should carry enough context to defend later. That's how we move fast without breaking things. Thanks to The AI Conference for having me and to everyone who joined the conversation today.

We kicked off our AI Identity Security Briefing Series today, and there’s plenty more coming. Built for customers and security teams navigating AI + identity challenges, the series continues weekly through Nov. 4 with 15 minutes from a Delinea expert, followed by 15 minutes of open Q&A.

Just dropped: The AI Enforcement Gap. AI policies are everywhere. Real-time enforcement? Not quite. Our new 2026 Identity Security Report looks at what happens after access is granted, and where the gaps start to show. See the findings → https://bit.ly/4z4giMd

Authentication gets an agent in. But that’s only the beginning. In this conversation with TECHx Media, Mortada Ayad, VP of Sales META at Delinea, breaks down why organizations need to control what AI agents can actually do after they’re authenticated, from the systems they can access to the actions they’re allowed to take.

The machines are clocking back in 👀🤖 Cybersecurity Awareness Month is almost here, and they’ve got a few questions for the humans. Stay tuned.

We’re growing, and so is our leadership team. Tim Regan joins Delinea as Chief Financial Officer, bringing deep experience scaling technology companies as we continue building for what’s next. Welcome to Delinea, Tim. 👋 Get the details: https://bit.ly/3Vaxlh1

AI agents are already running on your endpoints. The real question is: what are they allowed to do? As agents move from answering prompts to taking action, standing privileges can quickly become standing risk. Landry Noe breaks down six ways to reduce the blast radius without slowing developers down: https://bit.ly/4ydArPY

One day. One song. One very specific access window.
