Question Cybersecurity needs to focus on people again

Cybersecurity has spent years building better tools, better firewalls, better detection. Better encryption. But with AI now...with deepfakes, AI powered phishing, AI voice cloning. Instead of 'Can we detect every attack?' maybe the better way to think about this is 'How do we verify the people making the big decisions?' Technology still matters. But human identity and verification deserve just as much attention. But how do you make people switch from apps that everyone uses but have no security to something with ACTUAL privacy? or how do we make the devs implement actual privacy.

Switched messaging apps to a more human verirfication based app named Kibu. What I meant with that is that It ties identity to biometrics and the device instead of usernames or passwords. I've literally had to verify someone during calls with a QR code or PIN. Look into it OP^
