The 5% ceiling on in-use vulnerabilities without known exploits has plateaued, signaling human-scale defenses are insufficient. The argument is that agentic AI with human-defined guardrails (scoped permissions, deterministic rollbacks, audit logs, risk thresholds) is becoming operationally necessary, drawing parallels to how CI/CD and automated response were once controversial but are now standard practice. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
