Survey of 116 enterprises finds majority had agent security events yet fewer than one in five isolates high-risk agents
↗
A survey of 116 enterprises found that a majority have experienced a confirmed agent security event or near-miss, while only two-thirds enforce scoped permissions at runtime and barely one in five isolates high-risk agents.
Agent deployments are already in production across most surveyed enterprises, but containment practices lag significantly behind permission enforcement. The gap between incident frequency and isolation discipline means most organizations are running agents with inadequate blast-radius controls.
