Securing the Enterprise in the Age of AI Agents
Tuesday 3 November 2026 · 6:00 PM · The Groucho Club, Soho
Hosted by CYBER & BEATS, a cyber leaders dinner, then on to Ronnie Scott's
when an agent does something you would not have approved, whose name is on it?
Every identity control you own was built on three assumptions: there is a person, they hold a role, and you can ask them what they did.
An AI agent satisfies none of them. It acts with credentials someone else was issued, at a speed and scale no person works at, in places you cannot install anything. The destination app records the human whose access it borrowed. The logs record a request. Nobody records an owner.
Join a private CYBER & BEATS dinner on what identity means when the thing acting isn't a person.
Discussion points
Where should AI security controls actually sit, and what blind spots remain if you rely on network or endpoint visibility alone?
When an agent moves off the managed endpoint, do your controls still follow its work — and if they follow the network traffic instead, do they keep enough context to make the right decision?
When an agent acts on someone's behalf, whose permissions should apply, and how do you trace its actions back to a named owner?
How do you stop a compromised or manipulated agent exploiting another agent's greater permissions?
How do you keep an agent to the tools and data its task actually needs — and where did your data go when the model answered? Which model, in which jurisdiction, processed by whom?
The morning after: could anyone reconstruct an action that ran across several agents, and stop the workflow before it did more damage?
What controls and evidence would give you the confidence to approve wider AI adoption without slowing the business down?
The evening
6:00 PM — Arrival drinks, dinner & roundtable under Chatham House Rules
9:15 PM — On to Ronnie Scott's for the late set, round the corner in Frith Street
The room
One table, personally curated: senior security leaders from fintech — payments, neobanks, trading platforms and the financial software behind them. No audience, no slides, no sales in the room, no hard follow-up, details never shared.
The venue
The Groucho Club — Soho's most storied celebrity private members' club. Phones away, no photographs, nothing leaves the room. Then Ronnie Scott's, the jazz club that has been running since 1959.
Sponsor
Bind governs every human and AI workflow from the one vantage point that connects them all — the network. Each workflow is made known, attributed to a named owner, and narrowed to only the work it is meant to do, wherever it runs. They join the table as guests, not presenters.
