Yaniv Zimmer is an AI researcher at Torq, focusing on cybersecurity research at the crossroads of artificial intelligence, deep learning, and defensive operations. Drawing on extensive experience within Unit 8200 alongside industry and academic AI research roles, his work centers on advancing SOC AI architectures and threat detection capabilities Like a lot of people, we were excited when Jev launched. The premise is genuinely useful in production: an intelligent language model built for classification.

Over the course of this series, I’ve laid out the case for a fundamentally different security operating model — one built around Outcome, Judgment, and Execution layers, where AI handles the execution at machine speed, and humans focus on the decisions that actually need them. I’ve argued that the CISO’s role is changing, that human-centric security no longer scales, and that the org chart needs to reflect where AI fits on the team.
