Government agencies are being asked to rapidly adopt AI while maintaining the highest standards of security. As AI agents become a growing class of non-human identities, organizations must ensure these systems can securely access applications, APIs and sensitive data without increasing risk.
Join Okta to learn how an identity-first security strategy can help agencies confidently deploy AI while meeting evolving federal cybersecurity requirements and supporting mission success.
During this session, you will learn:
- How to prepare for evolving federal AI and cybersecurity directives
- Why identity-centric authorization is critical for securing AI agents
- How to reduce risk without slowing AI adoption
- Best practices for protecting government applications and sensitive data

Join us for an exclusive fireside chat exploring the intersection of agentic AI, enterprise security and public sector innovation. As AI agents become increasingly integrated with mission-critical applications, organizations face new identity, access and governance challenges. In this session, we'll explore how Anthropic's new Enterprise Managed Auth, powered by Okta, helps address the security risks associated with standing privileges and fragmented user consent. We'll also take a closer look at the State of California's historic statewide rollout of Claude and how this partnership is enabling secure, compliant AI adoption at scale. Key Takeaways:

It is widely recognized that the introduction of AI tools is a two-edged sword when it comes to cybersecurity. Attackers, whether profit-driven hackers or hostile nation-states, are using AI to launch faster, wider-spread and more sophisticated attacks, including AI-generated phishing and spear phishing emails, malware capable of adapting to changes in defensive responses, and deepfakes that are very hard to detect.
State and local agencies are attractive targets, since there are many more of them and often do not have the financial or IT resources of federal agencies.
This makes state and local agencies’ use of AI in cyber defense critical – AI tools can operate at machine speed and scale and adapt in response to evolving threats. These tools can significantly improve threat detection and intelligence by identifying anomalies and patterns signaling attacks under way; automating incident responses such as isolating compromised devices and resetting credentials; using Natural Language Processing (NLP) to flag sophisticated phishing and social engineering attacks; and prioritizing vulnerabilities to emphasize the most critical risks.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify available AI tools to determine which best fit the security needs of your agency
- Review ways to integrate AI cybersecurity into existing defenses
- Understand the nature and magnitude of the threats posed by AI-empowered attacks
