This year’s research identifies several defining trends and performance gaps shaping the enterprise landscape:
  • The Maturity Multiplier: Organizations with formal governance are twice as likely to adopt agentic AI and three times as likely to train staff on AI security tools.

  • Security Leads the Way: Over 90% of security teams are testing or planning to use AI for threat detection, red teaming, and access control.

  • The Multi-Model Shift: Enterprises now use an average of 2.6 models. Learn why Gemini has captured 48% adoption as organizations leverage multi-model strategies to balance innovation with data governance and security risk.

  • Top Concerns: 52% of organizations cite sensitive data exposure as their primary security risk, far outweighing AI-specific threats like prompt injection.
