The Air Gap Has Risen From the Dead. I Covered Its Funeral
Anthropic's Jason Clinton advocates for isolating artificial intelligence (AI) systems in critical infrastructure to prevent damage from AI-discovered vulnerabilities, but the article argues this approach echoes failed network isolation strategies like the government's GovNet plan from 2001. Identity controls, segmentation, and monitoring are presented as more effective security measures than physical network separation.
Why it matters: Critical infrastructure operators and security teams must evaluate whether AI isolation or defense-in-depth practices better protect operational technology from emerging AI-driven vulnerabilities.
