But the real problem here is not that we need more security software to protect against such breaches.<\/p>\n<p>It is more that AI companies are putting out beta products that aren\u2019t finished yet, and business owners who don\u2019t know better are rushing to use them without understanding what they bought. They hand these tools to their employees with no training, and the employees connect them to company email, files, and customer data without realizing what they\u2019re giving away. That\u2019s how the Vercel breach happened. Someone plugged an AI tool into their work Google account and it walked right out the door with passwords and keys.<\/p>\n<p>Leaders need to lead AI the same way they lead their company. Instead, what I\u2019m seeing is leaders handing their company over to AI, which means they\u2019re handing it over to whoever trained that model, and the people that trained that model are people who have no idea about the history of your organization, your values, or how you got here.<\/p>\n<p>If the CEO doesn\u2019t understand the tool, the company isn\u2019t ready to deploy it. Leaders should use it themselves first before turning their whole staff loose on it. Adding another security product on top, like Wiz, just creates one more company holding the keys to everything you own, which becomes its own target.<\/p>\n<p>As for AI being tricked or fed bad information, that\u2019s been a known problem in this field for over ten years. It\u2019s just that now the stakes are higher because these tools are writing real code and making real decisions inside businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Some might say more policy regulation is needed. But we do not want that. Federal regulation cause so many problems. The problem is the buyer. We need to have educated buyers that drive good technology right now we.
