Defensively, AI allows us to scan and secure vast codebases at a scale previously unimaginable. However, it also lowers the threshold for attackers, empowering less-skilled actors to launch complex, high-impact campaigns.\u00a0Ultimately, AI\u00a0is accelerating the pace of innovation for both defenders and adversaries alike. The question is simply who\u00a0gets\u00a0ahead of it and how fast.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Scale,\u00a0speed, connectivity,\u00a0and\u00a0security\u00a0are at the heart of our business<\/p>\n<p>For Cisco, the weight of this challenge is not lost on us. We\u2019ve anticipated it. We\u2019ve been planning for it. And it\u2019s what we are built for. Scale, speed, connectivity, and security are at the heart of our business. We run the infrastructure that powers the internet and enables customers to achieve their business objectives while cutting through complexity. That is not a boast. It is a responsibility. The security of the global internet is a commitment we carry on behalf of every business, every government, and every individual who depends on the connected world to work, learn, and communicate safely. In an era of rapid change, we refuse to be reactive. We will use every tool available to us to proactively tackle threats head on. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For some time, we have been stress-testing our own products and infrastructure against the most advanced AI-powered security tools available, including Anthropic\u2019s\u00a0latest unreleased AI model\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Claude Mythos Preview. What we have found has been illuminating.\u00a0Now\u00a0the real work begins.\u00a0\u00a0AI-powered analysis uncovers data at a scale and depth that legacy frameworks were not designed to accommodate.\u00a0This industry will recalibrate together, and Cisco is committed to leading that conversation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the day, it is all about our customers.\u00a0No matter how fast the industry moves, the transition ahead will not be seamless. Every organization can expect increasing pressure from AI-enabled threats while\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.cisco.com\/news\/doubling-down-on-resilient-infrastructure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">the work of hardening systems<\/a>, developing fixes, and deploying updates works its way through the accelerated cycle of technology adoption. This will not be easy. We are here to tell you we are doing everything in our power to get ahead of it, and that we will not stop.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>AI capabilities will continue to advance, the threat surface will evolve, and the organizations that protect the internet will need to\u00a0operate\u00a0at\u00a0the speed of machines and the scale of networks. Much of what we are now experiencing\u00a0would have been unimaginable just a few years ago. There is no finish line, only a\u00a0commitment to\u00a0do everything possible to\u00a0stay ahead of adversaries.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>What gives me confidence is not\u00a0the technology;\u00a0it is the community.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Security has always been a team sport, and the defenders who have protected this industry for decades have never succeeded by working in isolation. We have succeeded by sharing threat intelligence, raising the alarm when needed, and showing up for each other when the stakes are highest. That is what Project Glasswing represents. That is why Cisco is here.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The world of cybersecurity\u00a0has\u00a0fundamentally\u00a0changed.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Today,\u00a0I\u2019m\u00a0proud to share that Cisco is joining the world\u2019s most critical cyber defenders to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":166,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[24,288,289,25,290,291],"class_list":{"0":"post-165","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ai","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-ai-cybersecurity","10":"tag-ai-defense","11":"tag-artificial-intelligence","12":"tag-mitigations","13":"tag-threat-detection"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=165"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/166"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=165"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=165"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=165"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
