Summary
AI agents are becoming more powerful and dangerous in businesses because they can now perform real actions like reading emails, accessing applications, modifying data, and running workflows, rather than just answering questions. This shift means security teams need to be able to identify, control, and monitor every AI agent in their organization, or risk that an agent could become a security threat similar to a compromised employee account with high-level access permissions.
