A new ServiceNow study finds that 90% of global organizations faced agentic AI security incidents last year, yet only 13% have strong, defensible AI security postures. Most AI deployments lack proactive governance and real-time control, leading to increased exposure and delayed human response to AI risks.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity, and 2 sources have reported it between 20 Oct 2026 and 24 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Unguarded AI agents are a security time bomb inside your company. Lock down AI governance and automate risk controls now or watch your business bleed from slow incident response and shadow AI.
