“ With generative AI – such as Google Virtex AI , OpenAI GPT-4 , LangChain and many others – it is possible to search for patterns , to return new intelligent information in minutes in simple language even non-technical people can understand , that helps decide what actions to take to reduce cyber risk ,” explains Bernard .
Addressing the expanding surface As organisations ’ infrastructure continues to expand , the attack surface will only grow larger , making them increasingly open for cyber threats . With more work also being done on the cloud , the haul for a single successful attack can be vast .
But as Bernard explains , the point isn ’ t to try to secure every surface now exposed . “ By focusing resources on what poses the greatest risk , and understanding how attackers chain multiple flaws together , security teams can design more complete strategies that expose where they ’ re most at risk and close the priority gaps to protect against attacks ,” Bernard concludes .
By gaining an overview of what is exposed , who has access , what does access consist of , and how it is configured , organisations can prioritise remediation efforts based on actual risk rather than using what limited resources they have to secure everything in a batten down all hatches approach . cybermagazine . com 91
