IBM has introduced new cybersecurity measures to help enterprises defend against “agentic” AI-powered cyberattacks that can operate faster and more autonomously than traditional threats. The company launched a new assessment service to identify vulnerabilities and an “Autonomous Security” system that uses AI agents to detect, analyze, and respond to threats at machine speed. The move reflects growing concerns that advanced AI is making cyberattacks faster, cheaper, and easier, forcing organizations to adopt equally advanced, automated defenses.
