AI Agent Governance

Definition

The decision boundaries, permissions, monitoring, and audit trails an organization puts around AI agents that act on its systems and data. Mature governance treats every agent as a managed entity: it has an identity, an owner, defined limits, and a reviewable record of what it did and why. In Deloitte's 2026 State of AI in the Enterprise survey, only 21% of respondents said their organizations have a mature governance model for agentic AI, which means most are deploying agents faster than they can supervise them.
