agent security

The sudden, industry‑wide rush to build autonomous AI agents has exposed a simple truth: the Internet we designed for humans is not optimized for trillions of machine‑to‑machine, agentic interactions — and the consequences of continuing to pretend otherwise are already visible in security gaps...

Microsoft’s recent guidance on Copilot Studio agent security is both a wake-up call and a practical roadmap: as organizations race to embed AI agents into workflows, a predictable set of misconfigurations—broad sharing, weak or maker-owned authentication, HTTP request misuse, dormant artifacts...

Microsoft’s latest security push for Windows 11 marks a deliberate turn toward a consent-first, secure‑by‑default desktop: the company has announced Windows Baseline Security Mode (BSM) and User Transparency and Consent, a pair of features that together limit runtime execution to verified...

Zenity’s warning that Microsoft Copilot’s Connected Agents can create an “invisible control plane” — where a privileged or shared agent enables other agents to reuse tools and knowledge without clear logs, attribution, or native visibility — has pushed a fresh, urgent wrinkle into the enterprise...

Microsoft’s short list of seven AI trends for 2026 crystallizes a single theme: artificial intelligence is moving from tool to teammate, and the surrounding ecosystem — security, infrastructure, developer workflows and even the fundamental hardware of computation — is being reorganized to treat...

Microsoft’s AI push has shifted from a set of optional helpers to the declared center of Windows’ roadmap, and that pivot is already reshaping what it means to own — and trust — a Windows PC. The MakeUseOf piece captures the unease many users feel: built‑in assistants that watch, index, and in...

Microsoft’s blunt advisory that Windows 11’s experimental “agentic” AI features introduce novel security risks has refocused a long-running debate about where convenience ends and vulnerability begins — and it arrived not as a marketing footnote but as a front‑page safety notice built into...

Zenity’s announcement that it is delivering inline prevention for Microsoft Foundry and has reached general availability (GA) for inline controls in Microsoft Copilot Studio marks a notable moment in the rapid professionalization of agent security — but it also raises immediate operational...

Microsoft used Ignite 2025 to make plain what many had already suspected: Windows is moving from a productivity platform to an agentic, AI‑native operating system, with Copilot and third‑party agents baked directly into the OS experience, taskbar, and cloud PC stack — and with new Copilot+ PC...

Nokod Security’s new Adaptive Agent Security promises to bring continuous, runtime protection and governance to the fast-growing world of citizen-built AI agents — addressing the class of risks that appear when no-code and low-code builders connect autonomous agents to live systems, connectors...

GitHub’s new Agent HQ and a string of high‑profile AI slipups have pushed a single, urgent message to the front pages of enterprise security teams: the rapid agentification of developer and consumer workflows is exposing brand secrets in ways that traditional data‑protection tooling was not...

AVEVA’s latest push to centralise engineering, asset and real‑time operational data onto its CONNECT industrial intelligence platform marks a clear step toward the industry’s long‑running goal: a single, trusted digital thread that powers scalable digital twins, AI analytics and cross‑functional...

Microsoft’s security stack has just taken a decisive step into the agentic era: the company has expanded Microsoft Sentinel and Security Copilot with AI-driven, agentic capabilities — including the generally available Microsoft Sentinel data lake, new graph and model-context features that let...

Zenity’s expanded partnership with Microsoft plugs real-time, inline security directly into Microsoft Copilot Studio agents — a move that promises to make agentic AI safer for widespread enterprise use while raising new operational and architectural questions for security teams. The...

A growing number of administrators are reporting a perplexing problem: virtualized Windows Server instances running the Remote Desktop Server role suddenly become unresponsive for Remote Desktop users at a consistent time of day—sessions appear attached but the remote desktop shows a black...

Microsoft’s deputy CISO for Identity lays out a clear warning: autonomous agents are moving from experiments to production, and without new identity, access, data, and runtime controls they will create risks that are fundamentally different from those posed by traditional users and service...

Microsoft’s Copilot agent governance has slid into the spotlight after multiple, independent reports found that tenant-level policies intended to prevent user access to AI agents were not reliably enforced — a misconfiguration and control-plane gap that left some Copilot Agents discoverable or...

In a significant advancement for cybersecurity operations, BlinkOps has partnered with Microsoft to integrate its agentic security automation platform directly with Microsoft Sentinel. This collaboration enables organizations to swiftly create and deploy no-code, deterministic workflows in...

Azure Monitor Agent, the flagship monitoring solution for Microsoft’s cloud workloads, has come under intense scrutiny due to the public disclosure of a serious security vulnerability identified as CVE-2025-47988. This remote code execution (RCE) flaw exposes vital enterprise environments to the...

The digital frontier of business transformation is accelerating at an astonishing pace, and Microsoft Power Pages has emerged as a vital portal-building solution for enterprises eager to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) in their customer and citizen service journeys. At Microsoft Build...
