Cybersecurity in the post-mythos era: Keep calm and carry on!
Summary
This article evaluates how advanced AI models are changing cybersecurity, especially vulnerability discovery and exploit generation. It argues that the real shift is not that AI created a new threat category, but that it makes large-scale vulnerability hunting more scalable for well-resourced actors. It also notes that current benchmarks can overstate real-world impact and that mature security controls still matter more than hype. The piece recommends practical defenses such as stronger vulnerability management, attack surface reduction, zero trust, and decoy systems. It closes by stressing that AI raises the cost of ignoring basic security hygiene rather than replacing it.
