AI is rapidly changing how cyber defence is delivered. For managed security service providers (MSSPs), AI-enabled analytics, autonomous monitoring, and automated response offer the ability to analyse more data, close investigations faster and support customers seeking 24/7 assurance, without expanding SOC teams.
AI has the potential to improve cybersecurity, but speed alone doesn’t create resilience. If autonomous decision-making is not validated, tuned, and supervised, fast responses may be incorrect. The advantages of automation must be balanced by confidence that it behaves correctly under real-world conditions. Without this, introducing AI into an organisation’s cybersecurity becomes a new operational risk.

Artificial intelligence is transforming how technology teams work. Tasks that once took hours now take minutes. As teams grow leaner, many employers are cutting back on graduate and entry-level hiring, assuming that having smarter tools means requiring fewer hands.

Credential theft continues to pose a significant risk for enterprises operating in the cloud. In this environment, both human and machine identities now constitute the new security perimeter, meaning that a single leaked credential can provide attackers with access to an organisation’s most sensitive data. This risk has prompted teams to rethink their security models and develop new strategies (such as data perimeters and multi-account governance) to reduce exposure while maintaining operational agility.
