CISOs are feeling the security burden of accelerated AI use

Proofpoint's Voice of the CISO survey finds 85% of CISOs prioritizing AI security, with 80% managing AI risks without proportional resources.

Proofpoint's annual Voice of the CISO report, a Censuswide survey of 1,600 CISOs across 16 countries, found 85% rank securing AI assistants, copilots and automation among top priorities for the next two years. Eight in ten say they must manage AI-related security risk without a proportional increase in resources or expertise, and 78% now consider generative AI a major security risk, up 18% year over year. Board alignment improved to 85%, though nearly 80% still report excessive board pressure; 80% cite human behavior as the biggest cyber vulnerability.

15 Minutes Saved Per Alert: How a Lean German Manufacturer Protects 10,000 Endpoints with ANY.RUN

A five-person security team at a German manufacturer protecting 10,000 endpoints cut triage time by 15 minutes per alert after adopting ANY.RUN's cloud sandbox.

Philipp Z., Security Lead at a leading German manufacturer, described how a five-person team protects 10,000 endpoints and users using ANY.RUN's Interactive Sandbox in a private cloud. The firm previously relied on a single air-gapped forensic laptop running Flare VM, which caused 5-10 minute setup delays, single-user bottlenecks, and selective triage. The switch reportedly saved roughly 15 minutes per alert and reduced forced wiping and reimaging of user machines. ANY.RUN data cited in the piece puts manufacturing security workloads 22% above other major industries.

What do CISOs need to rest easy about future AI risks?

IANS survey of 113 CISOs finds optimism about managing future AI security risks hinges more on organizational readiness and leadership support than current controls.

An IANS AI Security Survey of 113 CISOs fielded in April and May found 41% optimistic and 38% pessimistic about their organization's ability to manage AI security risks over the next 24 months. Six organizational signals—leadership understanding of AI risk, defined governance ownership, security team effectiveness with AI tools, CISO ownership of the AI-security budget, sustainable workloads, and staffing—separate confident CISOs from pessimistic ones. Interviewed analysts cautioned that these readiness signals measure self-assessed confidence rather than actual security, and recommended hands-on AI use by security teams plus governance of third-party models.
