IDC predicts half of APAC enterprises will need AI bill of materials by 2028 as supply chain risks grow
Worth a glance, not a chew.
Summary
IDC forecasts that by 2028, half of enterprises deploying agentic AI across Asia Pacific will require an AI bill of materials for vulnerability scanning, license risk management, and compliance. The codexui-android incident highlights critical visibility gaps in AI tool components, credential access, and external service interactions. Many organizations lack complete inventories of AI tool access and have not applied least-privilege or behavioral monitoring to AI tools, leaving them vulnerable to attackers exploiting these gaps.
