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.
