Gartner published its first-ever Market Guide for Guardian Agents, formally recognizing AI agent oversight as a standalone enterprise category. Guardian agent spending: <1% of agentic AI budgets today, projected 5-7% by 2028. Key stat: "Through 2028, 80%+ of unauthorized AI agent transactions will be caused by internal policy violations — oversharing, misguided behavior — not external attacks." Named vendors: PlainID (identity), NeuralTrust (risk), Wayfound (alignment). For builders: agent governance tooling is a validated market, not a feature. (Gartner)
