Understand the reality of building AI into your security program

AI hype is everywhere - but real security outcomes depend on deeper evaluation.

The Current Reality

You need to strengthen your security program but you are under-resourced. Is generative AI the answer? Will it augment your lean IT and security team to make them more effective? Or should you outsource to a security provider and make AI their problem?

AI hype is everywhere. Every day we are subjected to a glut of content that appeals to no-one. Products we’ve been happy with for years now include AI functionality that, at best, has no use case and at worst, breaks workflows. This is especially problematic in cybersecurity response, where every second counts.

The Decision

So, can AI strengthen a security program?

The answer is a definite yes, but the question you must ask is: “Is it worth the effort?” And do not underestimate this effort.

The alternative is to outsource critical elements of your security program, like detection and response. However, you still need to know the questions to ask an MDR provider, about their use of AI, to provide you with the confidence that your desired business outcomes can be achieved.
