Agentic AI blows up the attack surface as security moves into the infrastructure layer
Source: SiliconANGLE (opens in a new tab) · Ryan Stevens
Intel Summary
SiliconANGLE reports that the adoption of agentic AI is expanding the enterprise attack surface across dynamic cloud environments. This shift is driving security policy enforcement down to the virtualization and infrastructure layer, allowing organizations to implement lateral controls and manage moving workloads without degrading network performance.
Why It Matters
Traditional perimeter defenses are proving insufficient for autonomous AI workloads that dynamically alter infrastructure states. Enterprise IT and security teams must evaluate and adopt lateral, infrastructure-level security enforcement to mitigate threats across distributed agent environments without introducing traffic bottlenecks.
