Alex Bovee, CEO and Co-Founder of C1, explains that one of the biggest identity security problems is organizations losing visibility into the growing number of AI agents, service accounts, tokens, bots, and machine identities that operate across thousands of applications and cloud systems.

Humans often overapprove access because they want to help coworkers, even when the permissions may be excessive or risky. But AI agents scale far beyond human oversight. 

Instead of relying on manual approvals and disconnected identity systems, companies need automated, policy-driven access controls that work in real time.

A major concern raised throughout the discussion is identity sprawl. Large organizations may manage thousands of applications and identities, many disconnected from central systems. As AI agents multiply, controlling that enormous visibility problem becomes difficult, manually.
