What will happen to my job? Will AI replace me? We asked the world's 20 most respected security leaders these questions. The leaders have secured CIA and Fortune-10 companies and have shaped the industry with their Gartner MQ reports and much more.. Their answers are waiting for you at RSA. 🎁 Pick up your FREE copy at Simbian Booth N-6567. May even get a signed copy, who knows!

It was an honor to visit the White House to discuss AI security with federal CISOs. AI has already changed the security landscape and happy to report that US government is all in on Agentic AI security. We need AI to automate SOC using distributed data from the tools we already have and improve security quality, not vanity SOC metrics. The stakes couldn't be higher than today.

We just launched AI Pentest Agent to find bugs. You get continuous pentest using our Agent that's constantly learning. This AI Agent uniquely uses security context to find real meaningful bugs and not get side tracked by cosmetics. The best part - it works cohesively with @simbianai AI SOC Agent. Security industry is tired of playing defense. We will use our offensive intelligence to fix things enemy has not even seen!

@simbianai @SoftBank @nttdata_inc @Infosys @Wipro @Microsoft simbian.ai/press-releases…

. @simbianai's progress over the year fueled by the world's first reasoning AI for cybersecurity: * 15x growth * global distribution with @SoftBank * strategic partnership with @nttdata_inc , @Infosys , @Wipro , * AI Threat Hunt preview with @Microsoft * published the industry's first LLM Benchmark on SecOps * held the industry's first AI SOC Championship * Got awarded the industry's first LLM patent for SecOps There is insatiable demand for AI SecOps because of AI weaponization. Thanks to all our customers, partners, and well-wishers for you🙏

We'll hit singularity in SOC in 2026 and in security in 2027. @simbianai AI SOC's self-learning is insane. Its sophistication in tool usage, cross-correlation, and understanding of overall investigation is 10x over last 3 months. By end of the year (may be much sooner) Simbian will use all SOC tools/telemetry better than most human analysts (think 99th percentile). It may sound crazy but just look at rate of progress of Claude code generation. Security is no different.

As certain as the sun rising tomorrow, cybersecurity will be driven by AI. Just as humans have no chance playing chess against machines, we would have no chance against AI-led attacks. Only AI can fight AI.

Three types of playbooks in SecOps * those written by you -- good old SOAR era * those written by no-code, low-code, or now AI for you. Many hyperautomation companies are doing today * those embedded inside your AI SOC - this is what many AI SOC companies do by teaching LLMs about playbooks Spoiler alert. All three are equally ineffective. All an attacker has to do is be a bit more creative and move a bit more zigzag. Sure, these playbooks can reduce noise but you are on your own for important threats. This is what's important about @simbianai. There is no playbook anywhere. It's entirely based on understanding, not memorization. And, you dont have to take our word. Multiple Fortune500 customers and world's largest GSIs trust us.

@emollick Ask them to implement a filesystem on top of an existing FS. An weekend project like this will teach more about concurrency, RoW hazards, locks, inodes etc. than a week-long course.

Does anyone know of a "intro to filesystems for smart non-computer people who never had to use a terminal or even really folders" that I could give to students who grew up largely not having to know this stuff? Everything 101 I can find is too easy & doesn't explain concepts.

@JoshuaSteinman FYI

A comparison of IT and OT security. OT is easier to attack (legacy software, smaller community) and can cause lot more damage (water poisoned, CT machines jammed, factories blacked out). The saving grace has been that there were fewer opportunities to make money hacking OT. Unfortunately, that's changing now. Nation states are treating OT as digital battlegrounds. Their incentives are not to make money but just create havoc.

Another day - another marquee customer. Proud to announce that NuSummit, a leader in security services, has chosen Simbian to power its AI-first services after carefully evaluating the whole AI SOC space.

Today was one of those days. My day started with a high-value POC going south. Our AI SecOps Agent had wrongly investigated multiple alerts. LLM was badly hallucinating conjuring unseen activities. It clubbed unrelated alerts and was recommending random containment actions. Really weird behavior that we hadn't seen so far anywhere else. Well.. life of a startup. Light camera action! Engineers debugging tirelessly till 4AM. 12 hours of hard work and finally we know what's happening. Unbeknownst to both the customer and us, there were multiple alerts and context that were not obvious. Simbian AI Agent had found them and investigated them correctly doing something no humans would do much less expect any software to do. I have this weird feeling that we are firmly in "superintelligent" phase of AI. Majority of our future job will be understanding actions taken by AI, not to correct them. WOW! What a time to live!

May your holiday be full of love!

Thanks Surabhi for a great article. There are lots of things we can do to accelerate AI in India.
