IT 2026 INDABA The AI authority drift: Closing the AI governance gap

PROGRAMME DETAILS

TIME: 13:00 - 13:40
LOCATION:


Agentic AI doesn’t wait for policy. It expands its own permissions, chains actions and makes decisions at machine speed, often faster than governance can react. In this session, Andy Aplin breaks down how authority drift opens the governance gap and what a real AI control plane looks like at enterprise scale. Leave with a clear view of which risks to contain first and how to build a governance model to scale with them.
