There is a huge amount of excitement right now about AI and security operations. Across the industry, we are seeing rapid innovation in areas such as behavioural analytics, AI-assisted investigation, and increasingly agent-based capabilities designed to help security teams process large volumes of activity more effectively.

It sounds like marketing language, just an updated way of saying “a better scanner.” This post is here to bust the myth behind that framing.
