In late December 2024, South Korea stepped forward proposing their own legislation regarding AI. By January 21, 2025, they became the second entity to propose AI regulation with the passing of the AI Basic Act.

Like any new tool, technology has infinite capacity to be used in all the wrong ways—in this, atomic and biological weapons come to mind. And even with better intentions, sometimes technological impact can still skew negatively, such as when society’s immense reliance on it harms our environment, health, or thought patterns.

What keeps security professionals up at night isn’t the idea of outsider threats attacking their companies—it’s their employees. Nearly 61 percent of security leaders surveyed said their biggest issue is worrying about negligent or malicious employees, which they claim are responsible for over half of their organization’s data breaches or security incidents.
