Can we build software secure enough to thwart AI attacks?” — Dr. Ying Zhang, featured on WFU News

“A vulnerability in code, configuration or infrastructure may already pose a risk, but AI agents can amplify its impact by autonomously exploring systems and attempting attacks at a scale beyond human capability,” said Ying Zhang, an assistant professor of computer science at Wake Forest University. “As a result, vulnerabilities once considered low risk in traditional software can become much more dangerous in AI-powered environments.”
