Enterprises Tighten Controls Over Agentic AI

As enterprises increasingly grant AI agents authority to execute payments, approve refunds and coordinate cross-system workflows, boards and audit committees are pressing for tighter governance and controls, according to reporting from CSO Online, VentureBeat, Computer Weekly, Wall Street Journal and Fortune. Vendors and teams are adopting AgenticOps, guardian agents, strict identity-and-access controls, comprehensive audit trails, and insurer products like Noma Security's $100 million raise and AIUC's $15 million seed.
