Only 21% of organizations govern non-human identities

JumpCloud's Q3 2026 IT Trends Report found that only 21% of organizations have implemented governance controls for non-human identities. Organizations often run separate tools for identity, device management and compliance, which leaves gaps between systems and forces IT teams to collect audit evidence manually, according to the company.

92% of Firms Hit by AI Incidents as Governance Lags Access: JumpCloud

More than half of organizations now deploy AI agents capable of changing systems, permissions, or files, yet 59% of those using such agents do not apply the same governance rules used for human employees.

Identity integration lags as AI agents gain system access

Only 41% of organizations using AI agents have fully folded those agents into the identity and access management (IAM) policies governing human users, the study found. The remaining 59% operate without full integration, leaving a structural gap between how human and machine identities are controlled.
