With a lack of focus and investment in cybersecurity fundamentals like patching, vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, endpoint protection and more, businesses could be blinded by the GenAI hype and fall victim to the most basic risks. As we enter the age of advanced tech, it's critical that companies leverage AI to master the basics before sweating over GenAI use cases.
