Autonomous agents expose gaps in ISO/IEC 5338's process model that enterprises must close now.
Unauthorized AI agents inherit old permissions and act without oversight.
Hybrid deployments have replaced the managed-versus-self-hosted choice.
Why AI agents need their own governance discipline, not borrowed software rules.
Companies must choose which agent actions need human approval to prevent irreversible mistakes.
Establish governance and oversight infrastructure before rollout, not after the first incident.
Modern AI agents fail differently than the systems traditional playbooks were built for.
Most companies deployed agents first and built governance later, leaving billions on the table.
Procurement teams need a new checklist for agents, not just the old software buying rules.
Most enterprises run AI agents without the governance to control or stop them when things go wrong.
