At Seceon’s 2025 Q1 Innovation and Certification Days, Seceon CEO Chandra Pandey and Joshua Skeens, CEO of Seceon’s partner Logically (www.logically.com) engaged in an insightful discussion about AI’s transformative role in cybersecurity. As cyber threats become increasingly AI-driven, organizations must evolve their security strategies to stay ahead of attackers.
The Growing AI Threat Landscape
AI-powered cyberattacks are on the rise – A staggering 97% of cybersecurity experts believe they have been or will be targeted by AI-generated attacks in the next 12 months.
Hackers have leveraged AI for decades – While AI has recently gained mainstream attention, malicious actors have been using AI since the early 2000s to automate and enhance attacks.
The cybercrime economy is massive – In 2024, cybercrime damages exceeded $1 billion per hour, equating to over $300,000 per second.
Skeens emphasized that organizations can no longer afford to ignore AI’s role in cybersecurity. Threat actors are already using AI to enhance their attacks, making it imperative for defenders to leverage AI-powered security solutions.
The Evolution of AI in Cybersecurity
AI and ML have matured significantly – Over the past few years, AI has progressed from a conceptual technology to a practical tool for cybersecurity professionals.
Domain-specific AI is key – Unlike generalized AI, cybersecurity-focused AI solutions must integrate contextual awareness to effectively detect and respond to threats.
Automation accelerates response times – AI-driven security solutions can cut the mean time to detect (MTTD) and contain (MTTC) threats by over 100 days.
Chandra Pandey highlighted that Seceon has been committed to AI and machine learning (ML) for years, continuously refining its platform to provide real-time threat detection and response.
How AI is Revolutionizing Security Operations
AI-driven SOCs enhance efficiency – Traditional SOC teams manually review thousands of alerts daily. AI automates event correlation, reducing the workload on human analysts.
Proactive threat mitigation – AI-driven detection enables organizations to identify and neutralize threats at the early stages of the MITRE attack framework.
Autonomous security actions – AI is not just for detection; it can take preemptive actions such as quarantining infected systems and blocking malicious activities.
Skeens shared how his security team processes billions of security events per day, filtering them down to just a handful of actionable threats through AI automation. Without AI, it would take hundreds of SOC analysts to achieve the same results manually.
AI-Driven Innovation at Seceon
Processing 100 billion events per second – Seceon’s platform ingests and analyzes massive volumes of security data to detect anomalies and threats in real-time.
Identifying threats before they escalate – Seceon’s AI-driven approach enables organizations to detect ransomware attacks in their earliest stages, preventing catastrophic data loss.
Driving continuous cybersecurity innovation – Seceon collaborates closely with industry leaders like Skeens’ team to enhance AI-powered security capabilities.
Pandey emphasized that Seceon’s commitment to innovation stems from real-world cybersecurity challenges. The platform continuously evolves based on emerging threats and partner feedback, ensuring that organizations remain protected against the latest attack vectors.
The Future of AI in Cybersecurity
AI will become a necessity, not an option – Organizations that fail to adopt AI-driven security measures risk falling behind in the face of increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.
Human-AI collaboration is essential – AI enhances security operations, but human expertise remains critical in interpreting and responding to threats.
Cybersecurity leaders must foster AI adoption – Business leaders must create a culture of AI-driven innovation to stay ahead of evolving threats.
Skeens closed the conversation with a call to action: “AI itself won’t take jobs, but those who leverage AI will outpace those who don’t. The time to embrace AI in cybersecurity is now.”
Final Thoughts: Staying Ahead with Seceon’s AI-Powered Security
