Securing financial services organisations in the age of autonomous AI agents

How security leaders can manage trust, control and resilience as the Internet of Agents emerges

 

AI agents are rapidly changing how organisations build, operate and secure digital services. As the financial services industry moves beyond isolated copilots towards interconnected autonomous systems capable of reasoning, taking actions and communicating with other agents, a new operational and security challenge is beginning to emerge.

 

Often described as the “Internet of Agents”, this next phase of AI introduces a fundamentally different risk landscape. Agents are no longer confined to single tasks or static workflows; they are increasingly able to access systems, interact with data, trigger actions across environments and collaborate dynamically with other services and agents.

 

For many organisations, this is creating new questions of governance, trust, identity, visibility and control.  Traditional security models were largely designed around human users, predictable applications and well-defined infrastructure boundaries. Autonomous agents operating at machine speed across interconnected environments introduce a very different set of assumptions.

 

At the same time, organisations are under growing pressure to operationalise AI safely and at scale. As financial services firms explore practical ways to build and deploy AI-driven capabilities on platforms such as Amazon Web Services, security leaders are increasingly focused on how these systems can be governed, monitored and secured in practice – without slowing innovation.

 

Join us to network with your peers and gain practical insights into how organisations are approaching the secure deployment of AI agents and agentic architectures. This is an exclusive event and seat numbers are very limited, so apply for your place now.

 

The topics we will explore

 

During the meeting, we will focus on questions such as:

• How can financial services organisations balance innovation, resilience and regulatory expectations as agentic AI adoption accelerates?
• What is the “Internet of Agents” and how could it reshape enterprise risk?
• How can financial services organisations securely build and deploy AI agents within cloud environments such as AWS?
• How can you protect your AI production workloads?
• What new attack surfaces emerge as agents begin interacting autonomously across systems and services?
• How should organisations approach identity, access control and trust for non-human actors?
• What practical governance frameworks are required to safely operationalise agentic AI?
• How can organisations maintain visibility and auditability over autonomous actions and decisions?
