AI agents are the ultimate insiders. We grant them permission to read emails, query databases, and trigger API calls. They don’t just retrieve information, they take action.  Agents offer incredible potential for increased productivity and better customer experiences, but they also come with new security concerns. In our new State of AI infrastructure report, 79% of tech leaders cite security, governance, or operations as their most significant challenge to scaling inference. While there’s still a crucial role for traditional security tools, the threat model has fundamentally changed. Autonomous workflows have redefined enterprise risk, so it's crucial that we give agents the access they need without compromising security.

The agentic paradoxThe path to success starts with viewing governance as a driver for innovation. To be useful and secure, an agent needs access — and also guardrails. Yet 35% of senior IT decision makers cite insufficient security for multi-system access as a primary issue preventing agentic deployment.Agents expand the surface area that defenders need to protect, and can introduce new threats, including tool poisoning and indirect prompt injection, where an attacker can hijack an agent’s logic through the data it processes. Managing the dynamic permissions that agents need to succeed at their tasks can also be a significant challenge, particularly as legacy security wasn’t designed for today’s automated threats.
