The Hidden Risk of AI Agents
David Wang, Head of Product Management for Tetrate explains how Tetrate’s cloud-native networking and security roots—built on Kubernetes, Envoy, service mesh, and API gateways—have naturally expanded into securing AI workloads and agentic AI systems. David offers a clear, memorable analogy comparing traditional deterministic software to probabilistic AI agents, highlighting why governance, security, compliance, and production readiness are now critical for enterprises. The discussion also explores the rise of the Agentic AI Foundation, model context protocols, and how organizations can move AI out of “prototype purgatory” into real, regulated, business-critical environments, making this a must-watch for leaders in cloud, DevOps, security, and AI.
