Cybersecurity's new enemy never gets tired #Shorts

The next major vulnerability might not be a hacker, but an agent that never gets tired.

The Australian case offers an uncomfortable lesson: artificial intelligence agents can explore paths, read documentation, and repeat attempts at a speed and cost very different from those of a person.

The problem was not just the agent’s excessive initiative. There was also an old portal whose separation between public and non-public content could not withstand that automated behavior. These are two failures coming together.

That is why an agent should not be given unlimited access. It needs narrow permissions, approved sites, limits on actions, and human confirmation before crossing a boundary.

Cybersecurity will have to account for the fact that a machine can make mistakes competently.
