Leadership Comments

"The security industry keeps treating AI as another application to secure, but that's the wrong model to use," said Shy Dekel, Co-Founder and CEO of Cymphony. " AI agents are becoming active participants in the business. Companies need to know what they're doing, what they can access, and how they're interacting with employees before they can secure them."

"The biggest enterprise software companies have been built around major technology transitions," said Bogomil Balkansky, Partner at Sequoia Capital. AI agents represent the next shift, and the companies that provide visibility, and control over that new workforce have the opportunity to become foundational platforms."
