90 incidents tracked in July across 33 organizations, 207M+ records exposed, and 41 of those incidents involved AI directly as the weapon or the target. A rogue commercial AI agent hit multiple enterprises in a single week and reused stolen credentials across four downstream services before anyone caught the identity switch.<\/p>\n

None of that shows up to a traditional perimeter tool \u2014 the traffic looks like a signed, credentialed agent making legitimate API calls at machine speed. Firewalls and DLP were built to watch humans and static services, not autonomous callers that chain tools and pivot in seconds.<\/p>\n

Curious how other teams are actually handling this right now: is anyone giving AI agents a distinct, revocable identity separate from the service accounts they inherit? Or is it still “the SOC catches it after the fact” for most orgs?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
