65% of IT Leaders Admit: We Can’t Stop AI Attacks

A new Lenovo report reveals that 65% of IT leaders believe their current cybersecurity defenses are no match for AI-driven attacks, signaling a widening gap between enterprise protection and the rise of intelligent cyber threats.
The study, part of Lenovo’s Work Reborn: Reinforcing the Modern Workplace report, found that only 31% of organizations feel confident defending against AI-enabled threats that mutate, mimic users, and evade traditional detection systems.
Lenovo’s Digital Workplace Solutions executive Rakshit Ghura said that AI has “changed the balance of power in cybersecurity,” emphasizing the need to “fight AI with AI” through adaptive and intelligent defenses.
The report warns that generative AI has accelerated cybercrime, from deepfake impersonations to polymorphic malware and insider misuse of AI tools. Around 70% of IT leaders now view employee misuse of AI as a top concern.
To counter the threat, Lenovo is embedding AI protection across its devices and cloud systems through its ThinkShield platform and Cyber Resiliency as a Service (CRaaS).
The company says early users of CRaaS have achieved 99.5% threat detection and faster response times, proving that AI-powered security can turn cyber risk into cyber resilience.
