Summary
A recent report by Vanta and Sepio Research highlights a growing disconnect between the rapid adoption of AI technologies in the corporate sector and the development of essential security and governance frameworks. Approximately two-thirds of IT and business leaders recognize that their understanding of agentic AI lags behind its implementation, and 60% express concerns about evolving AI-based cyber threats. Despite 80% of surveyed leaders prioritizing AI deployment, the absence of robust governance and incident response strategies poses significant risks as organizations integrate these technologies into their operations. These findings underscore the urgent need for healthcare professionals and organizations to prioritize security measures as they adopt AI solutions.
