RSA 2026: The AI Governance Gap Nobody Is Talking About

RSA Conference 2026 starts March 23. Every security vendor will announce AI agent governance. CrowdStrike just acquired SGNL for $740M. Okta announced "Okta for AI Agents" (GA April 30). Singulr, Lasso, Arthur AI, and Patronus are all pitching runtime detection. The AI governance market is officially hot. But nobody is talking about the gap that matters. The Identity Plane vs. The Behavioral Plane Okta's announcement is significant. They're extending enterprise IAM to treat AI agents as non-human identities — discovery, credential vaulting, universal logout, governance workflows. The stats they cite are real: 88% of orgs report AI agent security incidents, only 22% manage agents as identity-bearing entities. CrowdStrike's SGNL acquisition adds policy-based access governance to their security platform. Both are solving the identity plane : Who are your agents? What can they access? What credentials do they hold? This is necessary. It is not sufficient. What Happens After Authentication?
