Agentic AI and the Next Era of Trust
An interactive conversation for CISOs, GRC leaders, and senior security practitioners on how agentic AI is rewriting the operating model for trust, risk, and compliance.
The job changed. AI certification sprawl, exploding customer assurance demand, and an nth-party risk chain have tripled the trust surface area in 12 months, while teams, budgets, and tools stayed flat. The old "prepare, scramble, pass, exhale" playbook can't close the gap. A new model is emerging: continuous, transparent, and increasingly autonomous. A model where humans think and agents execute.
In this exclusive, peer-driven exchange, we'll discuss:
You'll hear real-world lessons from leaders already rebuilding their operating model for an agentic world—and leave with a sharper view of which layer of the trust stack your team should be building toward.
Space is limited to ensure a focused, high-value discussion. Register now.
This Dinner is Brought To You By:
Drata is an AI-native trust management platform that unifies governance, risk, compliance, and assurance. It automates evidence collection through integrations and runs control tests continuously, so teams can prove security and compliance with less manual work and stay audit-ready year-round.
Manual compliance does not scale. Teams waste time chasing evidence, updating spreadsheets, and repeating the same work for every audit and customer request. Drata replaces that scramble with continuous monitoring, centralized evidence, and always-current readiness—so security and compliance teams can move faster with more confidence.
