## AI overview

1Password's RSA 2026 recap focuses on securing agentic AI as organizations adopt AI agents faster than governance can keep up. It highlights 1Password Unified Access, a platform for discovering, securing, and auditing access across humans, agents, and machine identities, along with conference discussions about AI safety, security safeguards, breaches, and incident response.

## Source excerpt

Every year, security and tech leaders come to the RSA conference in San Francisco to take the industry's pulse, and every RSAC tends to be dominated by a single, overarching theme. Last year, the theme was: "AI agents are coming, and governance isn't ready." And sure enough, the theme of RSAC 2026 was: "AI agents are here, and governance needs to catch up." Throughout the conference, security practitioners, vendors, and analysts were all asking the same questions: How can we enable a culture of agentic AI builders, without compromising on bedrock security principles? How can we mitigate the potential for AI agents to behave unsafely, either via malicious compromise or their own nondeterministic nature? What are the most impactful safeguards every organization should be putting into place to secure AI and automation in the next year? 1Password provided answers to those urgent questions at RSA. Prior to the event, we announced the release of 1Password® Unified Access, a new platform that helps teams discover, secure, and audit access across humans, agents, and machine identities, so organizations can adopt AI confidently and securely. At RSA, 1Password leaders spoke on panels, met with customers, discussed what's next in agentic security with industry analysts and press, and demoed our products for booth visitors. Here's a look at the highlights.
