Autonomous systems are finally working. Security is next
Security still runs at human speed: Despite advances in infrastructure, cloud and AI, the underlying workflow of security operations has not fundamentally changed. At its core, security still operates as a human-driven process: Alerts are generated, analysts investigate, context is assembled manually and decisions are made under pressure. This model was sufficient when environments were…

How AI Hallucinations Are Creating Real Security Risks
AI hallucinations are introducing serious security risks into critical infrastructure decision-making by exploiting human trust through highly confident yet incorrect outputs. When an AI model lacks certainty, it doesn’t have a mechanism to recognize that. Instead, it generates the most probable response based on patterns in its training data, even if that response is inaccurate.…
