1. Prevention will fail.
If a cybersecurity strategy assumes that attackers can be kept out, it falls short. What matters is how quickly we can detect attacks, respond effectively, and restore business operations.
2. The biggest security challenge may be security itself.
More tools and vendors do not automatically mean greater security. Too much complexity can even compromise transparency and our ability to act. It is key is to turn all these capabilities into one security system that works.
3. AI will not solve our security problem. It will make it worse first.
AI accelerates defenders and attackers alike while creating new attack surfaces. We must therefore master AI securely while harnessing its potential for defense.
