The failure mode most teams aren't prepared for isn't unauthorized access. It's misaligned execution under valid authorization. AI agents can use valid credentials, follow policy, and can still execute the wrong action. Traditional IAM checks identity and permissions, but not intent. As agents scale in production, this gap becomes a real risk surface. Nancy Wang, 1Password CTO, and Jeff Malnick, VP of Engineering of Developer & AI, join Anthropic’s Richard Liu to bring this conversation to Agentic + AI Coding Night in SF on May 7. Their talk explores this risk and approaches like contextual policy evaluation and just-in-time credentialing to constrain agent behavior at runtime. Nancy joins leaders from Anthropic, OpenAI, Databricks, and Datafold covering agentic governance, repo-level reasoning, scaling agents in production, and more. If you're building or governing agentic systems, come join the conversation. 📍 Terra Gallery & Event Venue, SF 📅 May 7 | 3:30–9pm PST Register 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gUkq3twG

Agentic and AI Coding Night returns on Thursday, May 7 in San Francisco. This one is engineered for backend and infra engineers, AI engineers, and founders moving beyond basic wrappers and into complex agentic workflows, repository-level reasoning, and high-scale execution. Speakers from Databricks, Anthropic, OpenAI, 1Password, Datafold, and more will cover: - The core tension and balancing productivity vs. accountability for coding agents - How to balance individual developer productivity gains vs. enterprise-wide operational risk - Fireside chat with Rohan Varma from OpenAI on coding and agents Doors open at 3:30pm. Come build with us! https://lnkd.in/gUkq3twG

In Formula 1, every second matters on and off the track. That’s why Oracle Red Bull Racing reduced the wind tunnel recovery time from 1 hour to just 2 minutes with 1Password. By centralizing secrets across Kubernetes clusters, environments, and workloads, engineers no longer scramble for credentials during an incident. A tunnel technician can now trigger a full redeploy with a single button automatically, repeatably, and securely. The impact goes beyond speed: 🏁 Plaintext passwords removed from code, replaced with secure secret references 🏁 Governed access across factory, wind tunnel, and simulation pipelines 🏁 Safer simulation workflow integrations that enable faster, earlier decision-making in car development "For us, resilience is a performance advantage. When access and secrets are dependable, engineers spend their time shipping improvements, not waiting on permissions or cleaning up incidents." - Ian Brunton, Head of Software Engineering for Aerodynamics, Red Bull Racing & Red Bull Technology See how 1Password helps high-performance engineering teams move faster, with confidence. 👇 https://bit.ly/42aqSTx

Partnerships are central to what we do at Tines. Today, we're excited to share the momentum in our partner and channel ecosystem. In FY2026, Tines added 75 technology partners, grew our channel network by 25%, and welcomed 1Password to our ecosystem — joining an established community that includes Amazon Web Services (AWS), HashiCorp IBM, Elastic, Cribl, and more. Collaborations with channel partners like GuidePoint Security, Optiv, Trace3, ThunderCat Technology, and SHI International Corp. helped drive over 54% of year-over-year revenue, reflecting deeper enterprise adoption of intelligent workflows. We've also appointed Jessica Degenhardt as Director of Channel Partnerships, Americas, to help us take our channel program to the next level. The goal is simple: help accelerate time-to-value for customers and drive impact across their entire tech stack.

We're expanding our partnership with Perplexity to bring secure access to Perplexity Computer. AI agents are moving from answering questions to taking real action inside enterprise systems. The moment they do, access stops being a convenience question and becomes a trust question. That's what we're working to solve together. With 1Password Unified Access as the foundation, every action an AI agent takes can stay authorized, governed, and auditable. Credentials never touch the model. Humans stay in control. Workflows don't break. Security and productivity have long been framed as a tradeoff. They don't have to be. The secure path has to be the easy path. That's what we're building with Perplexity.

Today, FIDO Alliance launched an Agentic Authentication Working Group to develop standards for trusted, interoperable agentic workflows. And we are partnering with FIDO Alliance once again to define trusted mechanisms for how AI agents authenticate, act, and transact on behalf of users. “The hard problem isn’t inventing new primitives, it’s binding human intent to agent action with cryptographic guarantees that hold across organizational boundaries, and doing it through standards rather than proprietary stacks.” – Jeff Malnick, VP of Engineering, Developer & AI, 1Password Learn more 🔗 https://bit.ly/4dc2mHP #AI #AgenticAI #FIDO #Passkeys #IdentitySecurity #1Password

It’s an exciting time to join 1Password in EMEA. 🌍 As AI reshapes the way work gets done, our growing EMEA team is helping customers navigate questions around trust and access with confidence, while building a culture rooted in inclusion, collaboration, and ownership. In this blog, Oliver Cheal, VP, GTM EMEA, shares a closer look at the team, the momentum behind our growth, and what makes this a meaningful moment to join. 🔗 Read more: https://bit.ly/4sZm3HC

AI isn’t just introducing new risks, it’s exposing how quickly the traditional security models break down. In a conversation with Rob Pegoraro at Fast Company, 1Password’s CTO, Nancy Wang, put it simply: “AI is both a threat and a tool, and companies have to approach it as both.” Employees are adopting tools faster than security can keep up, and agents are starting to act on their behalf. That’s the tension organizations are navigating now as AI is changing who and what gets access. But the answer isn’t to slow AI down. It’s to rethink access across both human and non-human identities, in a way that adapts in real time. Security can no longer rely on static controls, it has to move at the speed of work.

I recently spoke at HumanX San Francisco alongside Nancy Wang, CTO of 1Password, and Edo Segal, CTO of Napster Corp., with Michael Nuñez from VentureBeat moderating. One idea that stood out from the conversation is that most of us are still underestimating how fast AI autonomy will evolve over the next few years. Right now, AI agents are largely reactive, meaning a user asks and it responds. But my sense is that we're moving toward a world where agents act without waiting to be prompted, surface issues before you notice them, take action in the background, and own entire workflows end-to-end. I think that shift is happening faster than most people expect, and it brings real challenges with it. Knowing when to let an agent run, when to have a human step in, and how to build the right guardrails around autonomous action is a muscle most organizations haven't had to develop yet. That's the work ahead and something we’re thinking a lot about at Decagon. Really appreciate the conversation and the perspectives shared across the group.
