The AI security question leaders should be asking instead

Gremlin security officer Frederic Bull argues AI has eroded the attacker-defender skill asymmetry while least-privilege controls remain essential for securing AI agents.

In a Help Net Security interview, Gremlin Security Officer Frederic Bull says AI has narrowed the expertise gap between attackers and defenders, enabling faster exploit discovery even by less-skilled actors. His team processed roughly nine times more vulnerabilities in the past year with unchanged staffing using LLM-based tooling, cutting time-to-remediate by about 5%. He argues least privilege, session-based RBAC via OIDC/OBO, and human-in-the-loop oversight remain the bedrock defenses for AI agents, and that hiring should favor engineers able to catch confidently wrong AI output.

A contributed Pentera piece argues that threat intelligence signals such as leaked credentials and vulnerability advisories often sit unactioned in queues because teams lack the offensive capacity to validate them against live environments. It promotes threat-led penetration testing (TLPT) and highlights Pentera's integration with Recorded Future, which triggers automated validation of leaked credentials against an organization's external attack surface. Wyndham Hotels & Resorts cybersecurity VP Joseph Gothelf is quoted supporting the convergence of threat intelligence and security validation.
