Enterprise software has evolved from traditional web apps to AI applications and autonomous agentic systems running across cloud and SaaS environments. Developers are using agentic endpoints to build the next generation of AI and agent-driven applications. Employees are using agentic browsers to update records in CRM systems, generate reports, reconcile data across tools and execute workflows across applications, often without switching contexts. AI is no longer just a tool that employees use; it is an AI Enterprise. It is becoming the digital surface of the enterprise where work is done, decisions are made, and actions are executed increasingly by autonomous systems. ![The AI enterprise of today has significantly expanded.](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/AI_Enterprise_JPEG-230x129.jpg) At Palo Alto Networks, we recognized the security implications early. *We are introducing Prisma AIRS^®^ 3.0* -- the unified security platform for securing the AI enterprise end to end. ## **The Security Model of Yesterday Cannot Secure the Enterprise of Tomorrow** Traditional security was built for deterministic software -- systems where the same input produces the same output. The AI enterprise is unlike anything we have seen before. Risk no longer lives in one layer. It spans the entire system. Beginning in the AI supply chain, where compromised models, agent code and external context shape behavior before execution. The enterprise then extends to posture risks, with overpermissioned agents operating across environments. It shows up at runtime, where behavior can be redirected midtask. Finally, it breaks down at the identity layer, where agents act with weakly governed, delegated access. Agents do not operate alone. They orchestrate other agents, where a single failure can cascade across systems. No traditional system deploys this way. Yet this is how agentic AI systems are deployed today. ![Securing Agentic AI at scale requires a new approach.](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Agentic_Risks_JPEG-230x129.jpg) Securing the AI enterprise requires a different approach, built around the full lifecycle of how agents operate: Visibility before control, assessment before deployment, and protection that moves at the speed of execution. Point solutions cannot solve this. A model scanner finds vulnerabilities but cannot control behavior. A runtime protection tool blocks inputs but cannot govern identity. A posture tool surfaces misconfigurations but cannot manage interactions. What you need is a unified platform built to secure the AI Enterprise, end to end. ## **Prisma AIRS 3.0 --- Security for the AI Enterprise** From the beginning, Prisma AIRS was built to secure AI across its lifecycle. About two years ago we introduced runtime protection for AI applications. 2.0 established more holistic security for AI applications with the inclusion of model security, red teaming and posture management. But the boundary has shifted from applications to agents. Prisma AIRS 3.0 extends that foundation into the AI enterprise, becoming the industry's most comprehensive *Agent Security Platform*, designed for systems that reason, decide and act. It is securing the AI enterprise through a unified approach: Discover, Assess, Protect. ### **Discover --- From AI Apps to the Agentic Surface** Security begins with visibility. But in the AI enterprise, visibility must extend beyond applications. Prisma AIRS 3.0 expands visibility across the full AI enterprise: Mapping enterprise agents across cloud and SaaS environments, endpoint agents (including vibe coding agents) running on developer systems and browser-based agents. Organizations gain real-time visibility into how these agents operate, surfacing MCP servers, plugins and tool interactions. This brings shadow AI and unsanctioned agents into view, closing one of the largest blind spots in AI adoption. What was once an inventory of applications is now a live map of autonomous systems operating across the enterprise. ### **Assess --- From Model Risk to Agent Behavior** AI applications introduced new risks. Agents introduce a new class of behavior. Prisma AIRS 3.0 monitors how autonomous systems behave before they act. *Agent Artifact Scanning*extends model scanning to agent artifacts, analyzing agent code, MCP servers, as well as skills for unsafe permissions, hidden vulnerabilities and indirect injection paths. *Agent Red Teaming* builds on AI Red Teaming with a multiagent architecture that simulates real adversaries, testing how agents behave under conditions, such as tool misuse and manipulated inputs. *Agent Posture Management* continuously assesses risk on agents operating across 12 different agentic SaaS and Cloud platforms, providing a real-time understanding of exposure as systems evolve. This is the shift from identifying weaknesses in components to understanding how entire systems behave under pressure. ### **Protect --- From Runtime Defense to Governance and Control** The defining challenge of the AI enterprise is not detection. It is control -- monitoring unsanctioned tool calls, enforcing agent identity, and stopping threats like prompt injection and memory poisoning before they propagate across a swarm. *AI Agent Gateway*acts as the control plane for the AI enterprise -- governing tool calls, model access and external connections. Every agent interaction is enforced through centralized policies. *Agent Identity Security* assigns each agent a governed identity with precise permissions and full traceability, ensuring actions are attributable and enforceable. *Agent Runtime Security* extends protection to agent-specific threats, such as tool misuse, memory manipulation, and adversarial instructions, stopping threats as they occur. *Agentic Endpoint Security* extends protection to endpoints, governing how agents interact with local systems, files and workflows. ## **Securing the Core of the AI Enterprise** The AI enterprise cannot be secured with fragmented tools. It requires capabilities, such as visibility across all AI surfaces, continuous assessment of evolving systems, identity and access control over who can act, and real-time control of how actions are executed. Prisma AIRS 3.0 delivers this as a single platform with a unified control plane that replaces point solutions by bringing together visibility, assessment, identity and runtime enforcement, built for how AI actually operates. It secures the foundation of the AI enterprise -- AI applications and enterprise agents -- and extends across agentic endpoints and agentic browsers, covering the full digital surface where autonomous execution is transforming workflows. ![The secured AI enterprise, Prisma AIRS.](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/AIRS_Overall_Blog_JPEG-230x129.jpg) \*The closing of the proposed acquisition of Koi Security Ltd. remains subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
