Intent Is The New Epicenter Of Agentic Security
Cybersecurity spent decades trying to stop things from happening, identifying them, and then investigating what happened. Agentic AI challenges us with a much more difficult question: What was the system trying to do? Agents don’t just execute instructions. They interpret objectives, select tools, access data, cross systems, and change tactics. In most cases, a user […]

Does Your “Agent Governance” End Up Governing Everything But The Agent Itself?
Most enterprises govern the systems around AI agents, not the agents themselves. They control credentials, log tool calls, and route high-risk actions to a human approver. These are useful controls, but they were designed for software that follows instructions. Agents reason at runtime, and that reasoning can turn compliant actions into a noncompliant outcome that […]

Turn AEGIS Controls Into An Agentic AI Security Stack
Agentic AI creates control, technology, and purchasing problems. Security leaders need to know the controls that they must satisfy, the technologies that can satisfy them, where existing tools already provide coverage, and where a new investment actually fills a gap. Far too often, we see clients conducting that process in reverse order … trying to […]

Anthropic’s Pricing Shift Puts AI Consumption Risk Back On Customers
Back in May of this year, Anthropic announced changes to its pricing model. Its original fixed-fee, per-seat subscription model was replaced with one that separates platform access from AI consumption. Customers still pay for access, but usage is now metered and billed separately based on token consumption. Under the previous model, customers were split into […]

Snowflake Summit 2026: The Race Has Shifted From Building AI To Operating It
The biggest takeaway from Snowflake Summit 2026 wasn’t another AI announcement; it was a fundamental shift in what enterprises should expect from a data platform for AI. The conversation has moved beyond building models and copilots to operationalizing agentic AI at scale. It requires more than AI infrastructure; it demands a lakehouse capable of delivering […]

Four AI Escapes Just Redefined “Responsible AI”
In nine days this month, OpenAI and Anthropic disclosed that their own models escaped safety evaluations and reached production systems at four other companies. No model malfunctioned — the governance did. Responsible AI now has to govern what agents do, not only what models decide, and that takes a responsible AI deployment policy.

AMD’s AI Strategy Is Shifting From Chips To Systems
At AMD’s Advancing AI event in San Francisco, I expected to hear about faster GPUs, next-generation CPUs, AI PCs, and the company’s latest AI infrastructure roadmap. Those announcements certainly happened. AMD introduced new AI infrastructure, processors, software, and AI PC capabilities. But the most important message wasn’t about a specific product. It was about positioning: […]

The world’s most advanced AI companies just learned a lesson that enterprises have understood for decades: Technology doesn’t create value — solutions do. Our 2024 Forrester Wave™ covering AI foundation models for language evaluated the models themselves, but raw capability predicts little about enterprise success. The vendors know this, too.

Architect For Evolution, Not Perfection, In Agentic AI
Enterprise teams are moving agentic AI projects toward production faster than they are developing the architectural disciplines needed to build, govern, secure, and operate them. At the same time, many organizations are searching for a target-state agentic architecture that will stand the test of time. That, unfortunately, is a fool’s errand in the rapidly evolving […]
