Cato Networks: Agentic AI Security Risks & Opportunities

Cato Networks is drawing attention to new security risks from agentic AI systems. These AI systems can access tools, call APIs, and interact with company data. This creates challenges for behavior, access, and control within an organization. This exposure affects both employees using AI and applications with embedded AI agents. Cato Networks has released an eBook to help govern and secure these AI agent behaviors. The company is aligning its strategy with the fast adoption of AI tools, especially concerning the expansion of attack surfaces. This focus could allow Cato to tap into growing AI security budgets. The emphasis on governing agent behavior also strengthens Cato's position in secure connectivity and cloud-native security. This matters because as businesses adapt to AI, vendors who address these new risks early could see increased demand and relevance in cybersecurity.
