Attackers scale deception with AI. Defenders need truth at machine speed.

Attackers scale deception with AI. Defenders need truth at machine speed.

Presented by SplunkAI has changed the economics of cyber deception.An attacker can now generate thousands of convincing phishing lures, fake identities, and tailored pretexts before a defender finishes a single change-control cycle. That is the new security challenge: deception got faster and cheaper, while verification did not.Much of the discussion around AI for defense centers … Read more
