What happened
ServiceNow's Aug/Sept 2026 AI Control Tower release notes (published Sept 14, 2026) add design-time model vulnerability scanning that surfaces automated red-team results from HiddenLayer, Cisco (Robust Intelligence), and Palo Alto Networks, plus a rebase of the AI Gateway from Spring Boot to an Envoy-based data plane for improved per-tool/per-server telemetry.
Why it matters
Shows AI-SPM/governance platforms consolidating third-party model-scanning results and hardening gateway infrastructure as a control point for agent/tool telemetry — incremental but reflects broader AI Control Tower category maturing.
Applicability
ServiceNow customers using AI Control Tower for AI asset governance should review new scanning integrations and gateway architecture change.
