Summary

Enterprises face growing risks from shadow AI and nonhuman identities (NHIs) as the use of AI agents expands. These risks include unowned and overprivileged AI agents, as well as shadow access paths to sensitive data. Entro Security has introduced a new tool to discover and manage AI agents and NHIs to mitigate these risks. The proliferation of AI agents highlights existing security gaps and introduces new challenges, such as shadow AI and unsanctioned digital assistants. Over 90% of NHIs lack proper life cycle management, making them prime targets for attackers. The new tool from Entro Security aims to map, monitor, and manage AI agents and NHIs, improving ownership, life cycle management, and threat detection.
