Raising the Cybersecurity Stakes: Ante up for the Agentic Era
CISOs are now facing machine-speed attacks and asking, “How do I agent?” The industry must provide remediation at scale. The post Raising the Cybersecurity Stakes: Ante up for the Agentic Era appeared first on SecurityWeek.
Organizations are making a big bet on AI, but if their plans don’t include a cybersecurity strategy, then they are gambling with their future.
Over the past few years, GenAI platforms have matured from pattern-matching large language models (LLMs) to tool-calling agents. Many enterprises now report that the majority of their code is written by AI. However, threat actors have also upped the ante – agentic attacks shape offense faster than human defenses can respond.
In the last decade, the fundamental questions of cybersecurity have evolved. When CISOs asked, “What do I have?”, the industry provided context on assets. When they asked, “What is important?”, the industry provided prioritization. When they asked, “How do I fix it?”, the industry provided remediation.
