Making Agentic AI Work For Your Mission — And Keeping It Under Control
Agentic AI is moving rapidly from experimentation to execution, faster than most government agencies can adapt. Systems are capable of increasing autonomy, yet current architectures, controls, and governance models were not designed for AI that can act, decide, and escalate on its own. For technology, data/AI, and security leaders, the challenge is no longer whether to adopt agentic AI but how to make it successful, demonstrate measurable value, and deliver mission impact — without losing visibility, control, or trust as autonomy increases.
This in-person event brings together senior technology, security, and data/AI leaders to explore how increasing autonomy reshapes decision flows, introduces new risks, and requires clear guardrails. Using Forrester’s latest research and the AEGIS framework, participants will review practical challenges across strategy, deployment, control, and security extending on foundational elements of Zero Trust principles and architecture; exchange approaches in a trusted peer setting; and leave with clear next steps for scaling agentic AI responsibly and with confidence.
Key Takeaways
- Understand how agentic AI reshapes enterprise architecture, operating models, and risk — and how moving beyond efficiency use cases unlocks broader, topline business benefits.
- Learn from your peers about real world approaches, tradeoffs, and lessons.
- Address the practical challenges of strategy, deployment, control, and security through structured discussions and guided exercises.
- Apply the AEGIS framework to strengthen governance and Zero Trust security and evaluate whether your data quality and integration are ready to support agentic AI.
- Leave with clear, actionable next steps to scale agentic AI confidently as autonomy increases.

Agentic AI Under Control: Turning Autonomy Into Strategic Advantage, Measurable Value, and Mission Impact
Agentic AI is advancing faster than most organizations can keep up — shifting from copilots to autonomous systems that act and decide on their own. This keynote will ground leaders in what’s changed, why it matters, and what they must do differently to succeed with agentic AI. Using Forrester’s latest data, AI research, and the AEGIS agentic security framework, we’ll outline how technology, data/AI, and security leaders can create strategic value, deliver mission impact and risk resilience improve efficiencies and outcomes and strengthen security, trust, and control, as AI autonomy grows.

From Vision To Reality: Designing Guardrails For Agentic AI At Scale
Forrester’s AEGIS framework uses guiding principles that extend and evolve from foundational elements of Zero Trust principles and architecture. In this deep dive, we pinpoint where control breaks down as AI systems become more autonomous. Then we translate those insights into practical guardrails in the AEGIS framework, highlighting what needs to change within each security domain to meet the new threats and challenges that come with agentic AI systems. You’ll leave with a sharper operating model, and where to apply Zero Trust architecture principles today as a part of an agentic AI rollout.
