The rise of artificial intelligence is creating new cybersecurity risks for businesses. AI agents can access information, interact with systems and carry out tasks on our behalf. But what happens when they access something they shouldn't? And how can businesses protect themselves when threats are moving at machine speed?

Sean Aylmer speaks with Nam Lam, Group Vice President for Australia and New Zealand at SailPoint, about the lessons from the recent Medicare security incident, the growing importance of identity security, and why traditional cybersecurity defences are no longer enough.

SailPoint is a supporter of Fear & Greed.
