Enterprises are shipping agents into production without the security infrastructure to contain them. Exabeam just launched Agent Behavior Analytics because traditional monitoring doesn't work for this new digital workforce. Chinese cyberspies already weaponized Claude Code in September attacks. Only 8.6% of companies actually have agents in production, yet 72% of S&P 500 firms now flag AI as material risk.
The gap is obvious: agents get broad permissions to stay functional, but organizations lack basic controls. No inventory of deployed agents. No behavioral monitoring. No approval loops for high-impact actions.
The fix isn't complicated. Define least-privilege access before deployment. Monitor for anomalies. Treat agent failures like production incidents, not experiments.
