ServiceNow Launches Autonomous AI Agents for Security and Risk to Accelerate Enterprise Self-Defense
Partnerships with Cisco and Microsoft, along with expanded compliance capabilities from ServiceNow, accelerate the shift from reactive defense to autonomous resilience, providing organizations with robust, efficient, and ethical solutions
Today, threats are often detected after damage is done, and compliance gaps surface only during audits. Cybersecurity teams, already stretched thin trying to keep up with the evolving threat landscape, are drowning in alerts and manual tasks, which can slow response times and mask critical risks. According to IDC鈥檚 Worldwide SOAR and Firewall Automation Market Shares, 2023 report (doc #US52710424, December 2024), 鈥淪erviceNow Security Operations enables comprehensive orchestration across hundreds of security tools and applications available through the ServiceNow store. This orchestration capability allows organizations to integrate their existing security tools into a single platform, streamlining workflows and enabling coordinated responses across systems.鈥�
ServiceNow's deep expertise in orchestrating complex, cross-functional processes at scale is the foundation for how AI agents are designed to act with speed and precision across the enterprise. By automating responses to vulnerabilities and building dynamic playbooks for incident resolution, ServiceNow is transforming the way enterprises manage security, risk, and compliance in a world where seconds matter.
鈥淎I is rewriting the rules of cybersecurity and risk management,鈥� said Lou Fiorello, group vice president and general manager of security and risk products at ServiceNow. 鈥淐ISOs are looking to use AI to drive productivity and improve their protection and response capabilities 鈥攁mplifying impact at scale. That鈥檚 why ServiceNow is delivering new security outcome-focused AI agents, with the right level of human oversight, on a single platform 鈥� so organizations can move faster, respond smarter, and stay ahead of evolving threats.鈥�
In addition to AI, ServiceNow is also expanding its capabilities from world-class, risk-based vulnerability management to include comprehensive exposure management workflows. With enhanced visibility into compensating controls 鈥� like endpoint detection, response tools, and web application firewalls 鈥� organizations now have a more holistic approach to risk mitigation. ServiceNow鈥檚 previously launched threat intelligence platform is being further strengthened with additional security case management functionality to enable proactive, precise responses to emerging threats.
ServiceNow also announced expanded global partnerships with security leaders Microsoft and , focused on building AI-to-AI ecosystems and providing security and governance for AI. These integrations combine ServiceNow鈥檚 workflow intelligence with Microsoft and Cisco鈥檚 enterprise expertise to deliver broader visibility, faster detection, and more coordinated responses. Together with Microsoft and Cisco, ServiceNow is helping customers stay ahead of evolving threats and confidently embrace AI in their operations.

Additionally, ServiceNow鈥檚 new Digital Operational Resilience Management (DORM) solution extends the reach of risk management far beyond security, empowering businesses to tackle operational disruptions, compliance challenges, and emerging risks that go hand in hand with today鈥檚 complex digital landscape.
These solutions empower organizations to protect their digital assets and optimize operational resilience. By addressing a broad range of risks 鈥� from data integrity to business continuity 鈥� ServiceNow enables companies to stay ahead of evolving threats and keep their critical applications running smoothly.
Securing tomorrow, autonomously
CISOs today are expected to go beyond managing threats; they鈥檙e also tasked with enabling business resilience. Together, these new agents, capabilities, and partnerships build the foundation for a resilient, self-defending security framework 鈥� where systems autonomously manage risk, protect the business, and ensure compliance.
