AI threats leave SecOps teams burned out and exposed - Help Net Security

A recent survey of 500 senior cybersecurity professionals reveals that while AI is helping with tasks like threat detection and data analysis, it is also contributing to burnout due to the rapid pace of technological change. The surge in AI usage by attackers, who are automating and scaling up their efforts, is exacerbating the problem, with nearly 40% of organizations reporting falling victim to AI-powered cyberattacks in the past year. Despite the benefits of AI, the imbalance in cybersecurity favors attackers, leaving defenders struggling to keep up with the evolving threat landscape.
