The CISO selling confidence in a market full of breach headlines

Span CISO Hrvoje Englman cautions that AI-assisted coding and personal automation agents are creating operational and security challenges: agents often inherit over‑privileged identities, increase undocumented systems and bus‑factor risk when creators leave, and complicate SOC operations. He advocates enabling secure AI use instead of banning it, emphasizes the limits of autonomous AI for defensive operations, stresses the need for senior analyst skills, and rejects blaming users as the weakest link in security.
