After years sitting across the table from enterprise security leaders, I've stopped hearing the question I used to hear constantly: does AI belong in security operations? They now ask how to deploy it without breaking what already works. Our latest benchmark data shows that shift. Ninety-seven percent of organizations are either using AI (58%) or evaluating it (39%). So the story isn't adoption versus rejection.

The economics of AI are increasingly tied to a market far larger than enterprise software. US frontier labs don't need to capture alarger share of the software market. They need to create a market large enoughto support nearly a trillion dollars in enterprise value. Enterprise softwareworldwide is a few hundred billion dollars a year. Total compensation paid toAmerican workers is approximately $16trillion a year. You can't get from one to the other by sellingseats. You get there by selling work.

At Black Hat 2026, Pentera CEO Amitai Ratzon discussed how artificial intelligence is reshaping offensive security, from AI-native attack technology to agent-driven security operations. Ratzon detailed Pentera’s new AI-native attacker for testing web applications, its MCP server for connecting security validation data with AI systems, and its growing emphasis on proving which vulnerabilities are actually exploitable rather than simply generating more alerts.

Incorta's Osama Elkady: AI Needs a Deterministic Engine James Maguire September 9, 2026 Incorta CEO Osama Elkady details why deterministic systems remain essential for financial and operational calculations James Maguire Executive Director An award-winning journalist, James has held top editorial roles in several leading technology publications, covering enterprise tech trends in cloud computing, AI, data analytics, cybersecurity and more.

As enterprises race to deploy AI agents, Incorta Co-Founder and CEO Osama Elkady argues that the real challenge is not simply choosing a more powerful AI model—it's building the data foundation that allows agents to work reliably. In this TechVoices interview, Elkady explains why agents need carefully structured business context rather than unrestricted access to raw corporate data.

As enterprises move beyond AI prototypes and begin deploying AI agents into real business processes, governance is becoming a critical challenge. In an interview at the Ai4 Conference in Las Vegas, OneTrust co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer Blake Brannon argues that organizations need a fundamentally new approach to AI governance—one built around independent oversight, runtime decision-making, deterministic controls, and policies that can evolve as AI systems change.

When new buzzwords emerge in the tech industry, it’s a safe bet that businesses will glom onto them by claiming to be doing whatever the buzzword implies they should. But sometimes, the extent to which they truly achieve meaningful change is limited. For example, two decades ago, companies that had merely moved some files to remote servers claimed to have gone all-in on cloud computing.
