An Application-Aware Triumvirate For Agentic AI Governance
Fortinet, September 16,2025
Innovation is one thing. Governance is another. A concerning mix of statistics from research surveys confirms that generative AI adoption by corporations is moving full steam ahead despite governance gaps that should cause pause.
According to PWC's AI Agent Survey from May 2025, 79% of companies have adopted AI and only 2% are not considering agentic AI at all. Regardless of whether those agents display truly agentic characteristics-such as the ability to generate work plans and execute multi-step actions, evaluate results, and self-adjust-or if they are chat bots funneling one-off requests out to a selected large language model (LLM), adoption is very high, and nearly all of those companies are planning to increase spending on AI in the coming year.
