2027 is going to be the year of two to three major CVEs per day.
The discourse on this is weird, sounds at times as if these are “because of AI.” These are mostly pre-existing bugs, some very old, and they’ve been lurking. If they all get found we exit the other side more secure and reliable.
I went on a security kick early this year, locking down everything as much as I could. Build your systems with the assumption that you WILL get hacked. Limit blast radius. Be prepared.
The next few years will be crazy, but you're right, we'll come out the other side more secure than ever before. Just gotta make it that far!
Will be interesting to see, if AI will cause an increased demand for sysadmins. Not sure companies will go "Make no mistakes" on their (production) infrastructure.
I wonder if switching to openbsd for my servers soon might be a good idea...

I agree, but as yet we have no idea how much pain we have to pass through to get to the other side.
On the other side we have a Linux networking stack written in Rust.
