ServiceNow, the AI innovation company has announced six unified security solutions under its Autonomous Security vision. This would be one of the broadest security portfolios built by a single vendor. This set of six integrated solutions is built to detect, contain, and remediate cyber risk. The unified solutions aims to focus around a prevention-first, AI-native cyber defence across – continuous vulnerability detection, cyber-physical security, unified exposure management, identity and access security, and agentic incident response, and cyber risk and compliance.
According to a press release shared by the company, stated that the new AI specialists complete the security workflows autonomously, including the ‘Vulnerability Resolution AI Specialist.’ These enable enterprises to prevent, contain, and remediate risk at machine speed before the threats before breaches. As enterprises push Agentic AI into production, every new agent machine identity and AI-generated line of code widens the attack service faster than security teams can review.
ServiceNow stated that closing this lag requires governed autonomy at the speed of the machine. On average, an enterprise runs over 70 security tools. This fragments insights across the extended attack surface – including endpoints, identities, and cloud environments. ServiceNow thus aims to consolidate this complexity into a unified system where – agents, identities, and assets are not only visible but also governed, secured, audited, and contexualised in a single motion.
Yevgeny Dibrov, SVP and GM, cybersecurity and risk, ServiceNow, said in a press note shared by the company, “As AI exposures compound exponentially, security teams operate on a human clock, fragmented security tools can’t match the curve AI is creating. Organisations need autonomous security and governance that matches the scale, velocity, and unpredictability of the threats coming: where all assets, identities, AI agents, critical infrastructure, cloud environments and code are protected, and can adapt as fast as the ecosystem moves to detect and remediate threats in real-time. Security becomes an accelerant, not the brake.”
The company believes its answer is through ‘Shift Zero’, which technically means prevention embedded at every layer across each system, identity, and agent governed in real-time, along with every action becoming traceable to what happened, why, and who is accountable.
Unified exposure management helps consolidate exposure findings from all sources and enriches data with business context and exploitation intelligence, enabling autonomous remediation at scale. Agentic Exposure Management pulls findings from all sources into a single stream, enriched with early warning threat intelligence and Fix Intelligence. The Vulnerability Resolution AI Specialist then handles triage at scale and executes low risk patches, converting backlogs into closure pipelines.
Continuous Vulnerability Detection covers code, cloud, and infrastructure, across one platform. Under it, Application Security extends thread modelling into AI-generated code and model dependencies, flagging supply chain vulnerabilities pre-deployment. DAST validates the runtime vulnerabilities across live applications and APIs while External Attack Surface Management shows the enterprise footprint as attackers see it.
Identity and Access Security addresses the largely ungoverned population of service accounts, cloud identities, and AI agents. AI Agent Access Security unifies access control for agents across any platform or model provider. Non-Human Identity Remediation goes further into action — automated key rotation, deprovisioning and permission revocation at scale, holding agents and service accounts to the same governance as human users.
Agentic Incident Response removes the hours analysts lose stitching together threat intelligence, asset ownership and identity data. The Tier 2 SOC AI Specialist builds and executes multi-phase response plans autonomously — enrichment, correlation, containment, blocking — escalating only high-risk decisions to humans.
Cyber Risk and Compliance turns compliance from a pre-audit scramble into a continuous signal. Agentic AI for Continuous Control Monitoring evaluates segregation of duties, access rights and configuration state in real time across ServiceNow and external systems, with reports available on demand for SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS and HIPAA. Cryptographic Asset Compliance handles discovery, AI-powered risk profiling and guided migration to quantum-resistant standards before the quantum threat window closes.
Underpinning the portfolio are the Armis and Veza acquisitions: Armis tracking billions of connected devices in real time, Veza’s Access Graph mapping effective permissions across human, machine and AI identities.
