AI agents running with full user permissions in enterprises create new insider threats as they autonomously execute tasks and decisions without proper oversight. Existing security tools lack runtime behavioural visibility and control over these agents, necessitating the emergence of AI detection and response (AIDR) solutions that provide discovery, behavioural monitoring, and real-time intervention at the endpoint.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity, AI Agents and Security Infrastructure.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

AI agents behave like insiders with unchecked power to breach security in milliseconds, creating an urgent need for AI detection and response solutions right on endpoints. Security founders must build runtime monitoring tools that stop agent breaches before they cascade.
