Traditional access control can’t handle contextual, document-level permissions at scale, leaving enterprises vulnerable.

In this talk, discover how Fine-Grained Authorization (FGA) locks down RAG and agentic AI systems, ensuring AI respects strict data boundaries. We’ll dive into real-world implementations with OpenFGA & LangChain, tackling multi-tenant isolation, leakage prevention, and auditability, all while scaling to billions of access decisions without sacrificing performance.

Whether you're building internal copilots or customer-facing AI, this is a must-win security battle.
