Dataminr Director Warns Cybersecurity Teams Must Use AI to Keep Pace With AI-Enhanced Attacks (infosecurity-magazine.com)

• Human-only SOCs cannot keep pace with AI-accelerated attacks.
• AI should augment human decision-making, not replace it.
• React2Shell exploited in hours; AI-enhanced SOCs respond faster.

"At Infosecurity Europe 2026, Joe Slowik from Dataminr warned that cybersecurity teams that don't deploy AI will fail against AI-enhanced threats. Human-only SOCs can't keep up with accelerated adversary timelines. He advocated redesigning security operations with AI augmentation, but stressed humans remain decision-makers. The React2Shell vulnerability was cited as an example of rapid exploitation within hours."
