When Vibe Hacking Turns AI into the Junior Hacker Every Adversary Always Wanted

Generative AI is lowering the barrier to entry for cyberattacks, allowing individuals with limited technical expertise to rapidly learn and adapt attack techniques. This shift is changing the dynamics of offensive security, moving away from a model where scarcity of skilled operators was a key defense and towards a continuous validation of security controls and prioritization of exploitable risk. Organizations need to adapt their security programs to proactively validate attack paths and outpace the capabilities of AI-assisted attackers.
