For CISOs, the challenge lies in turning AI disruption into opportunity
Generative AI (GenAI) promises to revolutionize cybersecurity, but initial attempts to fully automate complex security tasks
To address the various impacts of AI on cybersecurity, CISOs must first understand the hype, the risks and the potential.
Don’t expect an AI holy grail
The GenAI hype is bound to create disillusion in the short term as external pressures to increase security
Watch out for common symptoms of an ill-prepared GenAI integration:
GenAI is just the latest in a series of technologies that have promised huge boosts in productivity fueled by automation of tasks. Past attempts to fully automate complex security activities have rarely been successful and can be a wasteful distraction.
Although there are benefits to using GenAI models and third-party large language models (LLMs), there are also unique user risks that require new security practices

6 个月My experiences with various companies have revealed a common pitfall: AI is often used as a shortcut to avoid real work, leading to minimal, superficial benefits. While it might temporarily boost productivity, it fails to create lasting value unless wielded with ‘intelligence and strategy.’ When AI is harnessed to elevate an already ingenious system, it transforms into a powerful tool. Take, for example, a skilled chef using AI to refine and perfect a superior recipe for a specific audience—this approach enhances both value and popularity. On the other hand, an uninspired or unskilled cook relying on AI to create recipes will only achieve mediocre results, with no guarantee that the output will resonate with the target audience. Another point of confusion is related to the choice: when to go for AI-assisted and AI-generated? Your post resonated deeply with me, providing the perfect opportunity to voice these thoughts.
