Shadow AI Agents Proliferate Across Enterprises
Summary
Hide â˛
Show âŧ
Shadow AI agents are proliferating across enterprises, operating outside security's visibility and posing significant risks. These agents, often spun up by engineers or business units, impersonate trusted users and access sensitive data. They are tied to non-human identities (NHIs) and can leak data across supposedly secure boundaries. This issue is prevalent today, with agents multiplying faster than governance can keep up. Security teams struggle to detect and control these agents, which are easily created by various platforms and services.
