AI Defense and Induced Hallucination

Michael Romansky · 442 pages
$19.99

A practitioner's field guide to defending the enterprise in the AI era. Attackers now run AI-orchestrated intrusions and synthetic identities at machine speed. This book shows how to copy their structure: put AI where the work is mechanical, keep people at the decisions that carry consequences, and make the attacker's own AI hallucinate.

What is inside

Fourteen chapters in three parts. Part one is the new offense: how AI changed reconnaissance, phishing, identity and intrusion. Part two is the new defense: the AI-augmented SOC, detection at machine speed, securing the AI you deploy and the agents you run, and induced hallucination as a defensive technique. Part three is the program: governance, incident response and a roadmap leaders will actually follow.

Who it is for

CISOs, SOC leads, security engineers, architects and anyone being asked "what are we doing about AI" by a board. It is written by Michael Romansky, a security operations lead with 25 years in IT and 15 in security operations across healthcare and medical imaging.

Why induced hallucination

The attacker's AI only works if it trusts what it sees. Feed it what it expects, in the places it looks, and it confidently does the wrong thing. The book treats that as a first-class defensive discipline alongside detection and response, with the controls and the guardrails to do it safely.
