The real emerging threat surface lies in the autonomous AI agents themselves, which are vulnerable to supply chain poisoning, behavioral drift, and a critical lack of runtime observability. True enterprise security in the AI era requires a comprehensive platform approach that integrates pre-deployment hardening with continuous behavioral monitoring and unified governance, rather than relying solely on point solutions for code scanning.
