According to the “Inside the Mind of a CISO” report by Bugcrowd, the majority (91%) of security leaders believe that artificial intelligence (AI) already performs better than security professionals or at least will soon. The report showed that 70% plan to reduce the security team over the next five years due to adopting AI technologies. However, 58% believe that the risks of AI are worse than its potential benefits.

Nick McKenzie, CISO at Bugcrowd, said, “As the cybersecurity landscape continues to evolve, professionals and organizations must remain ready to adapt to the latest trends and emerging technologies such as AI and the implementation of crowdsourced cybersecurity.”
