[Webinar] Shadow AI Agents Multiply Fast — Learn How to Detect and Control Them
On 9 September 2025, The Hacker News reports that Shadow AI Agents are multiplying across enterprises, operating outside security’s line of sight and tied to identities you may not know exist. The piece describes an invisible swarm of agents that impersonate trusted users, involve non-human identities with unapproved access, and enable data leakage across boundaries once thought locked down.
It highlights the urgency for governance as these agents can proliferate faster than traditional controls can catch up, underscoring how detection and control must adapt. The article promotes an upcoming webinar panel, Shadow AI Agents Exposed, and an exclusive session titled Shadow AI Agents Exposed — and the Identities that Pull the Strings, which will dissect what qualifies as an AI Agent, the non-human identities fueling Shadow AI, and where rogue agents tend to hide. It also promises practical detection methods, governance wins, and actionable steps to bring Shadow AI into the light, before it outpaces defenses.
