Okta and CodePath pair identity guardrails for AI agents with training a new generation of cyber defenders.
Okta says AI agent adoption is outpacing governance, citing its AI Agents at Work report finding that 92% of surveyed executives report widespread or moderate use of autonomous agents.
It also cites Gartner's expectation that more than 40% of agentic AI projects will be canceled by the end of 2027 due to cost, unclear value or inadequate risk controls.
The article explains why Okta and CodePath are working together to pair identity guardrails with cybersecurity education that builds the talent needed to secure AI.
