## AI overview

This article explains why enterprises struggle to deploy autonomous agentic systems: organizations lack confidence in agents that can access data and tools without unique identities, audit trails, or kill switches. It argues for a centralized AI governance layer enforced by infrastructure that agents cannot access or modify, positioned between agents and the data, tools, identities, and models they use. The proposed governance platform also supports scaling through AI gateways, MCP hosting, observability, and budgeting.
