Taylor Roberts is the Principle AI Security Policy Analyst at Zenity, where he leads the company’s engagement with policymakers, regulators, and standards bodies focused on the secure adoption of agentic AI. He works at the intersection of cybersecurity, emerging technology, and national security policy, helping ensure that evolving AI governance frameworks reflect the operational realities of autonomous systems and the risks they introduce.
Taylor brings experience across government and international policy environments, with a focus on translating complex technical challenges into actionable public policy solutions. At Zenity, he contributes to national conversations on AI security, including engagement with NIST and other federal initiatives, advocating for runtime governance, identity-centric controls, and continuous monitoring approaches tailored to agentic systems.
He is particularly interested in how governments can align cross-jurisdictionally to build resilient AI security standards that keep pace with innovation. Taylor regularly writes and speaks on agentic AI risk, public sector modernization, and the need to evolve cybersecurity policy from model-centric safeguards to operational controls that secure AI where it acts.
