Cybersecurity mostly works because good hackers are expensive and few, not because things are actually secure. Utilities, hospitals, banks, governments, and basically every other organization with significant IT infrastructure are just not prepared for AI driven cyberattacks of the next 6-12 months. Imagine you’re hospital IT. The last guy who really understood the hospital network retired 10 years ago, you survived the ransomware era by buying expensive software that scans for phishing emails, and now you’re being asked to defend against AI swarms that have been *accidentally* poking holes in tech companies with sophisticated infosec teams. I don’t buy the *existential* nature of the threat yet, but I think pacing is one of the better tools in the toolbox to help the transition go smoothly. How else can we do it better? Handing out open source cyber hand grenades to everyone all at once won’t end the world but it sure will cause chaos.
