Zenity CTO Michael Bargury & Security Strategy VP Chris Hughes

This new phase of AI maturity is exposing a fundamental security gap. The agents delivering the most value are also the ones acting with the greatest autonomy. The result is growing asymmetry: agents are scaling faster than security teams’ ability to observe, understand, and govern their behavior.
This invite-only AMA is a candid, two-way conversation with Zenity’s CTO, Michael Bargury, and VP of Security Strategy, Chris Hughes, focused on how the AI security market is taking shape and where current models are starting to break.
Drawing from Zenity’s ongoing research, community involvement, and partnerships, we’ll walk through how we’re seeing the agent landscape evolve, how security risks manifest differently across agent architectures and lifecycles, and why a reframing is needed for how analysts and practitioners evaluate this space.
Rather than a presentation, this session is designed as an open forum sharing POVs on longer-term trajectory, discussing what resonates, and where things fall short.
