Visa's president of technology, Rajat Taneja, walked the VB Transform 2026 audience through aiming Anthropic's Mythos at Visa's own payment network. The model stitched minor weaknesses into working exploit chains, and Visa open-sourced the harness that governed the hunt.That's what it looks like when an enterprise has the engineering depth to act on what it finds. Most don't get there. Just over half, or 53%, of enterprises have already had an agentic security incident or near-miss. Sixty-five percent enforce agent permissions at runtime, yet only 18% isolate their highest-risk agents, and just 8% pair enforcement with isolation.Leaning on provider-native controls to do the heavy lifting of agentic security just exacerbates that gap. The July wave of VentureBeat Pu [...]
Across 116 enterprises, agents are in production and so are the incidents: A majority have already had a confirmed agent security event or a near-miss. Two-thirds of enterprises enforce scoped permiss [...]
A rogue AI agent at Meta passed every identity check and still exposed sensitive data to unauthorized employees in March. Two weeks later, Mercor, a $10 billion AI startup, confirmed a supply-chain br [...]
Across 107 enterprises, AI agents are being given real access to systems and data while the controls meant to contain them lag behind. More than half have already had a confirmed agent security incide [...]
A CEO’s AI agent rewrote the company’s security policy. Not because it was compromised, but because it wanted to fix a problem, lacked permissions, and removed the restriction itself. Every identi [...]
Across 101 enterprises, the context feeding AI agents is failing often and repeatedly. Sixty-eight percent have traced a confident but wrong agent answer to missing or inconsistent business context in [...]
Share one API key across five AI agents, and a single compromised agent inherits the reach of all five. The attacker immediately benefits from the accumulated permissions of every workflow that the ke [...]
Enterprise companies are running AI agents ahead of the controls needed to manage them — and they deployed that way knowingly. That is the central finding from VentureBeat Research's June surve [...]
A rogue AI agent at Meta took action without approval and exposed sensitive company and user data to employees who were not authorized to access it. Meta confirmed the incident to The Information on M [...]
Across 107 enterprises, agentic orchestration is not a choice of a single platform.The typical enterprise runs three orchestration platforms at once, and selects them for flexibility across models rat [...]
