RSAC 2026 Deep Dive: The Security Industry Enters the AI-Native Security Era

RSAC 2026 Deep Dive: The Security Industry Enters the AI-Native Security Era

RSAC 2026 signals security’s shift from AI-assisted to AI-native, pivoting to governing AI behavior. AI becomes a new attack surface, and AI Agents join users, devices, and applications as the fourth entity. Market competition is shifting from point products to integrated platforms. Leading vendors are building unified control planes. The three-year roadmap: AI-enabled → AI application → AI agent → autonomous security. The core battleground is controlling AI traffic and behavior. Agent Security will emerge as a critical new category.

Analysis of Campus Network Security Architecture Evolution in the Agent Era

Analysis of Campus Network Security Architecture Evolution in the Agent Era

This report analyzes campus network security’s shift in the AI agent era. Networks are evolving from “access networks” to “Agent Runtime Networks,” entering an Agent-Native phase. It proposes a three-tier model: Access Edge (agent identity), Network Edge (communication control), and Service Edge (task governance). The strategic conclusion: campus security is moving from access control to behavior control, re-establishing the campus network as the core of enterprise security infrastructure.

The Future of Enterprise Networks in the AI Era

The Future of Enterprise Networks in the AI Era

AI is transforming enterprise networks from passive infrastructure into active, intelligent platforms. This shift rests on three pillars: embedding AI into network operations, the rise of autonomous agents as primary network citizens, and a complete rethinking of security. Future networks must be intent-driven, programmable, observability-native, distributed, and sustainable. Organizations that treat the network as a strategic asset—not mere plumbing—will gain a decisive advantage in the AI era.
