In this episode of Agents of IT, host Ari Stowe sits down with producer Ian Coppock for a fast-paced, no-filter discussion on one of the hottest topics in enterprise tech: AI, security, and the reality of modern work. Is AI introducing new security risks, or just exposing the ones that were already there? The answer is both. From overprivileged access to machine identities, Ari and Ian break down what’s actually changing and what isn’t. They challenge the idea that AI alone will fix broken workflows and explore why intentional design, guardrails, and orchestration matter more than ever.

In this video, we walk you through Uptime.com's Cloud Status check feature, designed to monitor the status of common cloud services within your technology stack.
