What happened
Cequence Security launched Agent Trust, a new capability designed to verify AI agents and detect out-of-bounds actions. Cequence analyzed traffic across various sectors between September 1 and September 24, 2026, and found traffic matching Meta's Muse personal AI agent in over half of the businesses studied. The reports noted that Muse presents itself as a standard Chrome browser, allowing it to bypass typical security checks.

Why it matters
The findings highlight the security challenges posed by AI agents that do not identify themselves. Agent Trust allows businesses to stop harmful requests from these agents while still permitting customers to use services powered by agents like Muse. Traffic related to Muse grew nearly sixfold during the period analyzed.
