Agentic AI Meets Shadow AI : Zero Trust Security for AI Automation

The video explores the risks of Agentic AI, which acts rather than just chats, and the emergence of 'Shadow AI'—unofficial, unmonitored AI systems. It proposes a unified control plane for AI security and governance, using a continuous loop of discovery, assessment, governance, and auditing to ensure safe automation. The concepts are illustrated with practical use cases in healthcare and public services.
