Cybersecurity & AI: The (Continuing) Rise of LLM's

• Open-source large language models (LLMs) are revolutionizing the cybersecurity landscape by enabling innovation, cost-effectiveness, flexibility, and transparency

• While some Cybersecurity vendors have been doing so for over a decade, many more have jumped on this trend since the release of GBT 3.0 kickstarted the current AI trend

• Now these vendors, and some home-grown corporate teams, are increasingly adopting open-source LLMs to stay ahead of evolving threats, in the hopes of increasing customization, scale, flexibility, community collaboration, and reduced vendor lock-in

• Challenges remain: Heavy infrastructure investments, licensing complexities, and compliance risks

• Source include Gartner & Itamar Sher, CEO of Seal Security
