AI agents, not people, to increasingly be hacked

AI agents, rather than people, will increasingly become the victims of hacking, Axios reported on Sept. 8, citing Bugcrowd CEO Dave Gerry. Gerry said the trend is likely to emerge first in enterprise agents because most are deployed in corporate environments. He said companies have handed AI agents broad access to key assets, creating a major attack path. He also said AI features are being added to long-used tools, making visibility and review harder.
