ServiceNow Frames Agentic AI Governance Requirements

ServiceNow executives Amanda Grady and Marcelle Howard told theCUBE at RSAC 2026 on April 1 that agentic AI and autonomous workflows will reshape enterprise work but require strict governance and distinct agent identities. They outlined ServiceNow’s AI Control Tower to trace actions, enforce least-privilege access and monitor drift, and recommended narrow, measurable rollouts, citing up to 13% meantime-to-resolution improvements. The guidance aims to protect data while proving ROI.
