White Paper
Governing the Autonomous Enterprise
Morphisec examines how AI adoption is creating a new security gap at the endpoint, where shadow AI tools and autonomous or compromised agents can operate beyond the visibility and control of traditional defenses. Authored by Brad LaPorte, Morphisec CMO and Gartner veteran, the paper argues that network controls, CASB platforms, browser security, and additional detection layers may not adequately govern AI activity at the point of execution. It explores two major categories of AI risk—unsanctioned shadow AI and compromised AI agents—and frames the challenge around visibility, control, and prevention. The whitepaper advocates an endpoint-native security model capable of governing AI behavior directly where applications, agents, and users execute actions, with an emphasis on preventing risky
