Agentic AI Defense Costs Spiral as Adversarial Attack Volume Surges

Forensic Summary

Sevii's Cyber Swarm Defense launch highlights a structural tension in enterprise AI security: the token-based cost model of agentic AI defense becomes unpredictable and potentially unsustainable as adversarial attack volume increases. CISOs face a compounding risk where budget exhaustion mid-attack could force a fallback to understaffed human teams. The article also references Claude Mythos as a frontier model enabling higher-volume adversarial campaigns, underscoring the asymmetric cost burden between attackers and defenders.
