You need continuous investigation in order to understand if something deviates and becomes a risk,&#8221; Boldo said.<\/p>\n<p>That continuous approach also changes the analyst&#8217;s role. AI can correlate activity across weeks or months and assemble timelines, context and intent, helping security teams focus on judgment and response instead of sifting through logs.<\/p>\n<p>In this video interview with ISMG at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bankinfosecurity.com\/black-hat-c-372\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Black Hat USA 2026<\/a>, Boldo also discussed:<\/p>\n<p>What Above Security plans to prioritize next as it researches AI agent risk;<br \/>\nWhy deploying human analysts to monitor every AI agent in real time isn&#8217;t feasible;<br \/>\nHow Above Security&#8217;s partnership with CrowdStrike supports its insider risk strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Boldo leads product strategy and engineering for Above Security&#8217;s AI-native insider risk platform. Before co-founding Above Security, he co-founded AI-powered accounting platform Trullion, was senior vice president of R&amp;D at identity security company Silverfort, and was vice president of innovation at DriveNets.<\/p>\n<p>            <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Above Security Co-Founder Amir Boldo on Synthetic Insiders and AI Investigation Michael Novinson (MichaelNovinson) \u2022 August 14, 2026&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":140481,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[69171,179,7493,405,1710,69170,69174,69173,330,18084,30541,26693,69172,291],"class_list":["post-140480","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-agentic-ai","tag-above-security","tag-agentic-ai","tag-agentic-artificial-intelligence","tag-ai-agents","tag-ai-security","tag-amir-boldo","tag-automation-security","tag-continuous-investigation","tag-crowdstrike","tag-identity-risk","tag-insider-risk","tag-insider-threat","tag-synthetic-insiders","tag-threat-detection"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140480","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=140480"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140480\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/140481"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=140480"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=140480"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=140480"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
