As the AI hype continues to build, it's crucial to separate fact from fiction, especially when it comes to cybersecurity. Renowned technologist and thought leader Sally Eaves recently joined me to dive deep into the evolving landscape of cyber resilience in the age of generative AI. 

Watch our conversation here.

Generative AI: A Double-Edged Sword 

My work at Veritas allows me to explore the vast potential — and lurking challenges. Despite the excitement, there’s still a significant gap between intention and implementation. Although 80% of CIOs planned to adopt AI technologies in 2023, only 30% succeeded. This discrepancy between planning and execution highlights challenges, including integrating proprietary data with AI technologies. 

The intersection of AI and cybersecurity is not imminent; it's already here.  

As Sally points out, conversations around AI often overlook its traditional applications, which remain as vital as ever. For instance, at Veritas, our use of AI-powered anomaly detection showcases the complementary strengths of traditional and generative AI. 

Preparing for the future also creates a demand for reskilling or, as some call it, a reskilling revolution. With technologies evolving rapidly, staying ahead requires teams to embrace AI literacy and cybersecurity knowledge. 

Our conversation was about more than the current state of AI and cybersecurity. It was a call to action for professionals to do three things in particular: 

  • Understand the nuances of GenAI 
  • Recognize the importance of developing a strategic approach 
  • Seize opportunities for innovation and security enhancement 

I hope you’ll watch our conversation to gain more insight into how you can harness GenAI for cybersecurity. We also delve into the importance of data integration and the critical need for a strategic AI roadmap. As we venture further into the GenAI era, these elements will be crucial to ensure cyber resilience.
