Governing AI Agents at Runtime: Open Source Zero-Trust with AGT | Ubuntu Summit 26.04

AI agents are moving from demos to production – but who governs what they do at runtime? The Agent Governance Toolkit (AGT) is an open source, MIT-licensed framework from Microsoft that enforces deterministic policy before every tool call, message, and action an agent takes. In this talk, Imran walks through how AGT brings zero-trust identity, policy-as-code, tamper-evident Merkle audit chains, and a Kubernetes sidecar model to any AI agent, regardless of framework.

Why ITSM Still Isn't Solving Tickets (And What Comes Next)

Most ITSM platforms make it easier to submit tickets. They don't make it easier to resolve them. As we said in our webinar: "A better front door without backbone orchestration is just a faster handoff." The future of IT isn't faster ticket creation. It's autonomous ticket resolution powered by AI, automation, and orchestration.

AI Coding Security Risks Demand Dependency Firewalls | Harness Blog

AI coding assistants accelerate development but can rapidly introduce vulnerable, malicious, or non-compliant open-source dependencies into your codebase. Harness Artifact Registry's Dependency Firewall acts as a registry-level control point, evaluating and blocking risky external packages before they enter your CI/CD pipeline—essential protection against modern npm-style supply chain attacks.

Ship From Where You Build: Harness Delivery Intelligence, Now Inside Antigravity | Harness Blog

The Harness MCP Server now connects directly inside Google Antigravity. Developers can link Harness in under two minutes and give the agent structured, real-time access to their pipelines, execution history, services, environments, and policies, without leaving the editor. What makes it reliable isn't the connection itself. It's the Harness Software Delivery Knowledge Graph underneath, which gives the agent the context to act accurately, fast, and within your guardrails. ‍

How AI Is Transforming Production Issue Investigation for Modern DevOps Teams?

Production failures don't announce themselves cleanly. They arrive at 2 AM, buried inside 40 million log lines, spread across a dozen microservices, and disguised as something that looks entirely unrelated to the actual root cause. For years, engineering teams absorbed this pain through process: runbooks, on-call rotations, dashboards, and a deep institutional knowledge that lived in the heads of their most senior engineers.

How to track business expenses in 2026: methods, tools, and AI spend

How to track expenses for a business: categorize expense types (operating, software, cloud, travel, capital), choose a tracking method (spreadsheet, accounting software, expense management tool, or cost intelligence platform), connect data sources (bank feeds, cloud billing APIs, SaaS invoices), assign ownership per cost center, set a reporting schedule, and audit quarterly.
