AI lowers barriers to sophisticated cyberattacks, Dell warns

Dell Technologies CSO John Scimone says agentic AI has collapsed the cost and barriers to entry for cyberattacks, giving lower-tier threat actors tools once reserved for nation-states. He warned that the least sophisticated attack of tomorrow will be more sophisticated than anything seen a year ago. Dell is partnering with Anthropic's Project Glasswing to deploy AI in its own defenses. Scimone argued security teams must use AI to fight AI, and envisions future security programs staffed by one person managing tens of thousands of specialized AI agents.
