Frontier AI's general-purpose capabilities have given attackers immediate leverage—they can prompt-inject and jailbreak their way into networks—while defenders scrambled with off-the-shelf tools built for other tasks. Security-specific model families (like Wiz's approach) flip the advantage: defenders are now building domain-specialized systems that map attack surfaces, reason about threat context, and make recommendations faster than humans writing signatures or running generic LLM queries. The same pattern appeared in code generation and medical imaging—the AI gap closes through retraining on high-fidelity, domain-specific data that attackers can't easily access or replicate, not through scale alone.
