AI agents pose new security risks beyond data access, stalling enterprise adoption

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Enterprises face significant challenges in securing AI agents due to a governance gap in existing data security platforms. While traditional security focuses on who can access data, it doesn't adequately define what AI agents can do with that data, leading to stalled production rollouts. Gartner predicts over 40% of agentic AI projects may be canceled by 2027 because of insufficient risk controls, highlighting the need for defined agent identities and explicit action permissions as critical infrastructure for safe AI deployment.

    Your Data Platform Is Not Your AI Security Strategy

    Data security was designed to answer one question: who can read what. It was never built to define what agents can do, or under what conditions.
