The AI security question leaders should be asking instead

A Help Net Security interview with Frederic Bull, Security Officer at Gremlin, explores how artificial intelligence (AI) impacts security teams and what leaders should prioritize. The discussion emphasizes that understanding an AI model's training data is insufficient, and that least privilege and access controls remain essential for AI agents. The conversation also addresses how AI has compressed the skill gap between attackers and defenders and touches on managing increased vulnerability volume.

Why it matters: Security leaders need to reconsider their approach to AI governance by focusing on access controls and operational security practices rather than training data alone, as AI agents with excessive permissions pose material risks to their organizations.
