Welcome to the Cloud Wars Minute — your daily cloud news and commentary show. Each episode provides insights and perspectives around the “reimagination machine” that is the cloud.
In today’s Cloud Wars Minute, I explain how ServiceNow is enabling secure, scalable adoption of AI agents across the enterprise.
Highlights
00:03 — ServiceNow is joining forces with Zenity, the first security and governance platform that’s been purpose-built for AI agents. Zenity is becoming a ServiceNow build partner, bringing with it a range of capabilities to ServiceNow Security Operations, including agent security, posture management, and vulnerability assessment.
00:25 — Deepak Kolingivadi, VP of Product Management and Head of Security Products at ServiceNow, said the following about this new partnership: “AI agents are transforming how work gets done across the enterprise, including Security Operations. Our partnership with Zenity strengthens the ServiceNow AI control tower and Security Operations solutions.”
01:01 — Now, collectively, these new capabilities bring to ServiceNow customers a greater ability to scale the use of AI agents safely and with full confidence as part of their existing SecOps processes. And what we’re seeing here is ultimately a new category, AI Security Operations, or AI SecOps.
01:26 — It’s also important to note that by embedding this governance layer through its build partnership, ServiceNow is demonstrating that it’s truly ahead of the curve here. All new products delivered by software vendors need integrated security and governance, and agentic AI is no exception.
01:58 — The key word here is scale. ServiceNow has the tools to drive AI across the breadth of a business, and now through Zenity, it’s delivering the ability to do this at scale.
