Gartner® Emerging Tech Impact Radar: Preemptive Cybersecurity
Get complimentary access
Advancements in frontier and agentic AI are compressing the window between vulnerability discovery and exploitation. Attackers now leverage AI to discover vulnerabilities, chain them into coordinated, multistage attack paths and weaponize exploits at machine speed – while most organizations still rely on human-led, reactive security operations.
The Gartner® Emerging Tech Impact Radar: Preemptive Cybersecurity report analyzes the maturity, market momentum and impact of 11 emerging technologies and trends across the 1-3, 3-6 and 6-8 year investment horizons – from Preemptive Exposure Management, Agentic Red Teaming and Predictive Threat Intelligence to Automated Moving Target Defense, Zero-Trust Stealth Networking, Autonomous Cyber Defense Systems and Quantum Computing in Security.
Download your complimentary copy of the report to learn how security and product leaders are shifting from reactive defense to preemptive, autonomous cyber defense, and where to focus investments to achieve adaptive cyber resiliency against AI-enabled threats.
What We Believe You’ll Learn in This Report:
- Which technologies will reach early majority adoption in the next 1-8 years, and what their momentum means for your roadmap
- How AI is accelerating attack paths and shrinking the time-to-exploit window to near zero
- Why detection and response alone are no longer sufficient, and how preemptive capabilities deny attackers a static target
- How autonomous security systems – agentic orchestration, exposure remediation and cyber defense systems – are redefining security operations
- How Automated Moving Target Defense (AMTD) continuously shifts your attack surface to render adversary reconnaissance obsolete before damage occurs
