How Security Manager’s Role Changes with AhnLab AI PLUS
“Game Changer”
AI is fundamentally changing the rules of the game in cybersecurity. This shift goes far beyond the emergence of new AI-driven attack techniques. With AI, attackers can launch faster, larger-scale, and far more sophisticated attacks than before, using less time and fewer resources.
The real challenge is that human analysts simply do not have enough time to investigate, analyze, and make decisions at the speed of AI-driven attacks. Attacks are moving at the speed of AI, while security operations are still running at the speed of humans. This is the most significant security gap of the AI era. Closing this gap requires more than adding new security products. It requires a fundamental shift in the way security operations are designed and executed.
AhnLab has been preparing for this transformation for years. Moving beyond simply adding AI features to individual products, we are accelerating our AI-native security platform that redesigns products, services, and security operations around AI - providing an answer to the growing security gap.
About AhnLab AI PLUS
Our AI-native security platform, AhnLab AI PLUS, is more than just a new name. It is a brand, platform, and architecture designed to connect our security data, intelligence, and real-world security operations around AI. With AhnLab AI PLUS at the center, we are evolving from AI-powered security, where AI is applied to existing products and services to enhance detection, analysis, decision-making, and response, toward AI-native security, where products, services, and security operations are designed around AI from the ground up. The following table describes each layer of AhnLab AI PLUS.

Benefits of AhnLab AI PLUS
From the user’s perspective, the tangible benefits of AhnLab AI PLUS can be summarized into three key areas.
Figure 2. Benefits of AhnLab AI PLUS
First, AI analyzes correlations among individual alerts, the progression of an attack, and its potential impact. It then reconstructs alerts generated across multiple products into a single incident and presents prioritized response actions. Instead of reviewing alerts from each product individually, security operators can identify critical risks and the necessary investigation and response actions based on a unified incident and its broader context.
The following provides a more intuitive view of the benefits of AhnLab AI PLUS.
Over the past month, 20 AI-native sensors generated 1,969,908 alerts. Assuming two minutes of manual review per alert, analyzing them all would require 65,664 hours—an amount of time that is physically impossible to process manually. Our AI automatically analyzes approximately 2 million alerts, triages 16 as requiring actual investigation, and identifies 13 as real threats. The entire process of identifying these threats takes only 4 minutes and 23 seconds. When a user selects an AI-investigated threat, they can review the detailed analysis and the response recommendations.

We are applying these agentic AI security capabilities across multiple security platforms, including EDR and XDR. Rather than showing customers more alerts or information, AI agents help reduce the time required to identify what matters, understand why it matters, and determine which actions to take. Consequently, organizations can transform their security operations with intelligent AI.
