AI in Cybersecurity: Philippe Caturegli on Offense & Defense

Ethical hacker Philippe Caturegli says AI is changing cybersecurity on both offensive and defensive sides. He believes AI allows him to do more with less, especially in penetration testing. What's interesting is Caturegli uses AI tools to find obscure vulnerabilities. Tasks that once took weeks or months of source code analysis can now be done instantly. He sees this as extending his time, making him feel like he has 48 hours in a day. Here's the thing: while AI models like Anthropic's Mythos and Fable are powerful, Caturegli suggests some of the hype around them is marketing-driven. The bottom line is AI is significantly enhancing the capabilities of cybersecurity professionals, allowing them to deliver more value to clients.
