Why AI Won't Fix Your Cybersecurity Problem
IT Security Guru, Tuesday, September 29th, 2026
Logicalis's James Gillies says AI will expose existing security weaknesses, so fix visibility, identity and response first.
In an IT Security Guru opinion piece, James Gillies, head of cyber security at Logicalis UKI, argues that AI offers defenders real gains but also accelerates vulnerability discovery and exploitation, which could sharply shrink the window between finding and fixing flaws when 77% of organizations report an incident in the past year.
Preparing for AI-driven threats starts with addressing existing weaknesses rather than buying more technology.
Gillies outlines five priority areas, from asset visibility and identity to the speed of detection, response and remediation.
