This is a managed security service for autonomous AI agents and tools like coding assistants and MCP servers, which can access data and run commands on endpoints. Its value rests on governance, visibility, and 24/7 response from human experts, not on any new AI capability. Readers should note that the supporting statistics come from the vendor's own threat reports, and that the real test is how well this kind of agent oversight performs in practice.
Introducing Unit 42 Managed Agentic Endpoint Security

AI agents and AI-enabled tools are fundamentally changing how work gets done.

AI agents and AI-enabled tools are fundamentally changing how work gets done. From coding assistants to Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, autonomous tools now access sensitive data, execute commands, and modify local workflows directly from the endpoint. Traditional endpoint security models fail to offer the visibility or governance required to manage these autonomous actions. The security gap is already significant.…
