Security practitioner to frontier LLMs: stop selling vuln exposure as defense
AccBalanced · x · 2026-11-06
A security practitioner pushes back on frontier LLM vendors' cyber narrative: rather than "defending customers," these models are showcasing their ability to find and chain vulnerabilities — even training on synthetic exploit data — while pushing enterprises back into repetitive scanning cycles.
The author argues real defense means no false positives, comprehensive coverage, and cost efficiency via sensors, inline inspection and enforcement, and calls on frontier LLMs to take a responsible approach to cybersecurity instead of marketing exploit discovery.
