Annual Compliance Fails Against Adversarial AI

The author argues that traditional compliance relies on a "snapshot in time"—an audit is signed and certified at a specific moment, then ignored until next year.
This used to make sense when attacking a company was costly, requiring dedicated teams and planning. However, in an "adversarial AI" environment, attacks can probe 24/7 and adapt in real-time without human intervention. The author concludes that:
- Annual audits are essentially a screenshot of a burning building
- Facing continuously evolving attacks, compliance and security require more dynamic mechanisms.
