Agents Are Already Running. Your Data Governance Isn't.
Agentic AI didn't wait for a change control — and neither did your data exposure. Every agent running in your environment today inherited access to data it was never meant to reach. Sensitive records. Regulated content. Credentials sitting alongside source code. RAG corpora assembled from content nobody reviewed for sensitivity.
The risk isn't theoretical. Compensation data is appearing in Copilot summaries. M&A documents are being surfaced outside deal teams. Overpermissioned service accounts are being exploited at machine speed. And most organizations have no continuous, current picture of what their agents can actually reach.
This guide is for security leaders who need to know what data their agents are touching, what they shouldn't be able to reach, and what needs to change first.
