TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 announces five sessions on security and enterprise AI deployment
TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 (13–15 October, San Francisco) announces five conference sessions on AI agent security and enterprise AI deployment, featuring representatives from Anthropic, Okta, NanoCo, AWS, Shield AI, NVIDIA, Gamma and Clay.
TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 takes place on 13–15 October at Moscone West in San Francisco. According to the organizers, it will offer over 200 sessions across six themed stages, including five sessions dedicated to AI security and production deployment, split between the AI Stage and the Real World AI Stage.
The session “What Anthropic Sees When Enterprises Actually Deploy Claude” will be led by Cat de Jong, Head of Applied AI at Anthropic, together with Grant Lee, CEO of Gamma, and Kareem Amin, CEO of Clay. According to the organizers, the topic is why some enterprise AI pilot deployments move into production while others remain in the pilot phase even after 18 months. Another session, “The Agent Security Problem Nobody Is Talking About”, with Ric Smith (Okta) and Gavriel Cohen (NanoCo), will focus on AI agent security at the infrastructure level and the limitations of application-level permissions. The session “Securing the AI Enterprise: Why the Cloud Just Got a Lot More Complicated”, with Rudy Mitra (AWS), Katie Moussouris (Luta Security) and Wendy Nather, covers security, governance and observability requirements for enterprise AI deployment. The Real World AI Stage will host the session “Building AI Systems When Failure Is Not an Option”, with Nathan Michael (Shield AI), Mikell Taylor (General Motors) and Raquel Urtasun (Waabi), on the safety of autonomous systems in the physical world, and the session “Robots Are Waiting for Their ChatGPT Moment”, with Les Karpas (NVIDIA), on the shortage of training data for robotics compared with language models.
According to earlier TechCrunch reporting referenced by the articles, Gamma had approximately 100 million users in the spring, and Clay was among the first applications integrated into the Claude interface when Anthropic introduced interactive work tools within Claude in January.
