Teams move fast to ship an agent pilot, then crash into company policy the moment it needs real access. It works in a sandbox. It stalls the moment it needs an MCP server, a real credential, or a scope wider than a demo account. Governance hasn't kept pace, and shipping on top of that gap isn't speed, it's debt that comes due in production.
This talk makes the case for an agent control plane: guardrails, agent identity, MCP authorization, and access, built to catch up. Control only holds up if it works across any model, framework, or deployment - both for the agent estate you have today and the one you'll have in a year. We'll cover what agent control needs the moment something breaks: live identity, real-time enforcement, an audit trail that survives the incident, and the ability to isolate one agent without disrupting others.
Takeaways:
- How controls accelerate agent production, not block it
- Why real control has to travel with the agent, not bolted to the stack when it was built
- How framework-agnostic governance at the org level eliminates silos and future-proofs your agents
