The Age of the AI Genie: Why Hacking Is No Longer Just About Code (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hello Cyber Builders 🖖This week, I have a simple suggestion: watch Bruce Schneier's DEF CON talk.Bruce Schneier’s DEF CON 34 talk questions what we think we know about AI security. Here’s what stood out to me.If you are short on time, here are his four main arguments.1. Hacking Is Far Broader Than Code — The Genie & The GolemFirst, AI is a powerful hacking tool. But hacking itself is nothing new. People

Hello, Cyber Builders 🖖Last year, AI in cybersecurity advanced quickly. GPT-5 was the first model to show practical cybersecurity skills, analyzing and acting on real use cases. Claude 4.5 followed soon after.With GPT-6 now released, it is time to review what has changed since then. I’ve built a timeline from 2023 to 2026 of all model releases with their cybersecurity capabilities.What matters most? I reviewed all the releases and their statements on cybersecurity. The timeline with details and

Hello Cyber Builders 🖖In Part 1, I went deep on the physical moats: hardware, networks, and cryptography.The argument there was that these categories survive because they depend on something AI cannot instantly replicate — physical reality, accumulated trust, and mathematical correctness. You can’t prompt your way to a FIPS 140-3 certification. You can’t generate an authentic practitioner community. You can’t guarantee cryptographic correctness with a foundation model.Today, I want to talk about

Hello Cyber Builders 🖖Some weeks ago, I published a map of six places where I believe durable cybersecurity companies can still be built. Every week, I see AI-assisted coding speed up software development. What used to take months and a team of five now takes one CTO and a weekend. Systems of Record have lost their value. Software companies' valuations dropped to an average of 5x annual revenue.Building a database with dashboards is now a weekend job. Most software ideas are no longer real busin

Hello Cyber Builders 🖖Last month I wrote about the buy-versus-build question.Building security tools is cheaper than ever. With AI coding agents, open APIs, and cloud-native platforms, a single skilled engineer can do the work of an entire team. The gap between buying and building has nearly vanished.But that advantage goes both ways.If it’s cheaper to build, it’s also easier to copy. The moat you built with code, APIs, or a polished product gets smaller every month.So the real question isn’t “w
