Cyware President Jawahar Sivasankaran Explains Why Operational Threat Intelligence Needs AI Agents Now
Read this expert article by Jawahar Sivasankaran, President of Cyware, where he explores how AI agents transform threat intelligence into real-time, coordinated defense.
Jawahar Sivasankaran, President of Cyware, is calling for immediate adoption of AI agents in threat intelligence, warning that organizations waiting on the sidelines risk falling behind adversaries already using AI to scale attacks.
In a recent AI-Tech Park article, Sivasankaran highlighted a critical gap: while 78% of security teams believe AI can improve threat intelligence, only 43% report meaningful impact. He blames "AI-washing"—repackaged functionality marketed as innovation.
"Much of what is labeled 'AI-powered' today is simply repackaged functionality," Sivasankaran wrote, urging leaders to focus on whether AI meaningfully improves workflows or just creates more alerts.
His solution? AI agents that function as "connective tissue across systems and teams," ingesting threat data, triaging alerts, and distributing actionable insights in real time while humans maintain oversight of high-stakes decisions.
"AI agents are no longer just enhancements—they are essential for translating intelligence into real-time, autonomous defense," he concluded.
