The core concern raised by the National Cyber Director is that CEOs and security leaders lack sufficient visibility into what AI agents are authorized to do and how they interact across supply chains. Without proper governance, AI agents can become high-value attack vectors or inadvertently expand an organization's attack surface. This matters because a compromise of an AI agent embedded in critical infrastructure could cascade across power grids, water systems, or financial networks with devastating consequences.
