Kaspersky: AI threat intel still needs human verification
Kaspersky Taiwan technical director Hsieh Chang-hsuan argues that generative AI lowers the bar for reconnaissance, phishing copywriting and some coding work, turning attacks from periodic to near-continuous, while the security fundamentals — patching, phishing awareness, boundary protection — remain unchanged; only the pace and scope have shifted. He says threat intelligence must be source-trustworthy, timely, contextually relevant, confidence-scored and actionable, with AI handling scale and correlation while experts validate and interpret findings, since unverified automated output can produce false positives that hurt operations. The article lays out a five-layer enterprise AI/agent defense model: enterprise boundary management, client-side AI (Shadow AI) control, agent interface and outbound-connection protection, LLM and RAG input/output validation, and core identity, endpoint, server and network security, warning that models, datasets, plug-ins and skill packages can all become supply-chain entry points (citing OWASP risks such as prompt injection and sensitive information disclosure).
As companies adopt AI agents and third-party packages, threat intelligence and AI supply-chain risk become a governance and human-judgment problem rather than a data-volume one.

生成式AI降低了偵察、釣魚郵件撰寫及部分程式開發工作的門檻,使攻擊者得以更快、更大量地展開行動,企業導入模型、資料集、套件與AI工具後,擴大了軟體及AI供應鏈的風險。
這兩股力量交織之下,企業面對的不再是單一威脅,而是速度與範圍同時擴張的攻擊環境。卡巴斯基臺灣技術總監謝長軒指出,AI能大量產出資料,決定防禦成敗的關鍵,不是誰握有最多預警訊號,而是誰能把海量資料轉化為可以立即行動的情報。
他認為,好的威脅情報必須同時具備來源可信、時間有效、脈絡相關、信心度清楚與可執行等條件,AI能加快前段處理,專家則負責高風險判斷與情境分析,兩者缺一不可。
AI加快攻擊節奏,但沒有改變資安基本功
謝長軒點出企業容易陷入的一個迷思:以為導入AI之後,資安遊戲規則會被徹底顛覆。實際情況並非如此,生成式AI可協助攻擊者撰寫或修改程式碼,大量產生語句自然、針對性更高的釣魚內容,對低技術攻擊者的提升,以偵察與社交工程最為明顯。
