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 incident or a near-miss; only about a third give every agent its own scoped identity, and most agents still share credentials; and only three in ten isolate their highest-risk agents. The security stack is overwhelmingly borrowed from the model providers and hyperscalers rather than purpose-built for agents, spending remains a thin slice of the security budget, and enterprises are evenly split on whether their defenses are keeping pace with AI-enabled attackers. The result is an agent security gap — autonomous agents proliferating faster than the identity, isolation, and enforcement controls neede [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Enterprise AI has a new infrastructure problem: companies are accumulating agents faster than they are developing systems to govern them.Gartner estimates that the average global Fortune 500 company w [...]
Across 108 enterprises, trust in automated agent evaluation rose sharply in July — and the failure rate it is supposed to predict did not move at all. The share of organizations that fully trust aut [...]
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 [...]
The UK AI Security Institute (AISI) disclosed last night that the leading two frontier AI models from Anthropic and OpenAI took 19 unsanctioned actions against the live internet during cybersecurity t [...]
