AI only
This chart shows how the job's tasks split between humans and AI. "AI only" means a task AI can handle without a human — not a job removed: the role recomposes and the human refocuses on judgment, relationships and oversight.
AI Position of the Job
AI Impact on this job
This profession is undergoing deep transformation. AI is taking over a significant share of tasks related to information system security, reshaping roles and ways of working. You’ll need to rely on governance and system supervision while retaining human oversight for critical outputs.
What will change
