Opsin Labs Report: 60% of Enterprise AI Agents Are Over-Permissioned as Adoption Accelerates 14x
Opsin’s inaugural State of Agentic Adoption 2026 report finds enterprises now create one AI agent for every employee, with most granted broad, full access by default.
Opsin, the AI governance platform for approved enterprise workforce AI tools, today announced the release of their proprietary State of Agentic Adoption Report, the first research publication from the company’s research arm, Opsin Labs. The report analyzed enterprise production environments across eight verticals between March 2025 and June 2026.
Enterprise environments now average one agent, live or in draft mode, for every employee, with workforce interactions with AI agents growing 14x between January 2026-June 2026 alone. 67% of agents are being built by employees without engineering background like GTM, Customer Success, and Operations often outrunning the provisioning discipline security teams rely on to scope access safely.
Opsin Labs also found that 60% of agents provisioned beyond default settings were granted allow-all access rather than being scoped to the permissions their tasks required. 60% of agents were judged to have configured capabilities that exceeded their original stated intent.
