This is your opportunity to prove your platform can stop a rogue agent attack in real time. The Agentic AI Overlay Award recognizes vendors who can move beyond theory and demonstrate true enforcement of the Agentic Overlay Mandatory Controls (AOMC) in a live attack scenario. By the time you take the stage, the audience will already understand the threat. What they’re waiting to see is who can actually stop it.
Review the Agentic AI Overlay Demo and prepare to showcase Scenario 2, where your solution blocks the attack and delivers measurable control, visibility, and trust. This is more than a demo. It’s a chance to stand out as a production-ready leader in agentic AI security in front of the enterprise operators, defining what comes next.
