Securing AI Agents at Machine Speed: Building Trust Through Segmentation

AI agents are accelerating application development, but the infrastructure and security teams supporting them are struggling to keep pace.

In this episode of Built for Trust, Nick Lippis sits down with Erez Tadmor, Field CTO at Tufin, to explore what happens when agents begin requesting access, changing workflows, and interacting with critical infrastructure at machine speed.

They discuss why traditional approvals and periodic audits will no longer be enough, how segmentation can limit an agent’s blast radius before an incident occurs, and why trust must be continuously verified based on what each agent can actually access. Erez also explains how infrastructure teams can establish the guardrails agents need to operate safely without becoming a bottleneck to innovation.

The conversation looks ahead to a world where AI manages AI, compliance becomes continuous, and humans move from being in the loop to overseeing it.
