The humans burning out on AI's cyber frontlines

TL;DR

The people at the frontlines of the ongoing barrage of AI-enabled cyberattacks are being pummeled with attacks, vulnerabilities and false alarms. Why it matters: Humans are still at the frontlines of a fight enabled largely by AI — and they're struggling to wade through mountains of threat data to determine who's been hit and which attacks pose a real danger to companies.

Nauti's Take

Small teams should first test the resilience of their alert process: which warnings get priority, who confirms a hit, and how quickly does a signal become an action? Run a realistic ransomware exercise with deliberately limited staff time.

If the exercise produces only more alerts, the workflow still lacks operational control.
