AI cybersecurity risks? Humans'll always be #1

AI commands all the headlines nowadays, but the biggest security story of the week is all about human laziness and poor password habits - just like the good old days. 

This week on the Kettle, host Brandon Vigliarolo is joined by US editor Avram Piltch and security editor Jessica Lyons to talk about the Klue breach, which was blamed on a "compromised legacy credential" that ought to probably have been deleted a while ago, which allowed cybercriminals to pivot to the SalesForce environments of hundreds of companies. The incident has caused trouble for security firm Huntress, who admitted to the breach early on, and the situation over there wasn't caused by AI either. 

That said, AI is playing a role in what's being described as "the summer from hell" by one security professional, but while top-tier AI models are spotting troublesome vulnerabilities, the amount of damage they've managed to cause pales in comparison to what one lazy sysadmin can cause by poorly managing passwords.
