Human oversight in cybersecurity refers to the essential role of human supervision in monitoring, evaluating, and, if necessary, intervening in automated or AI-driven security systems. While artificial intelligence and automation can enhance threat detection and response, legal and ethical standards require that humans remain in control, especially in critical decision-making scenarios. Human oversight ensures that automated systems do not act autonomously in ways that could cause harm or violate regulations. This includes reviewing AI-generated alerts, validating responses, and having the authority to override or halt automated actions. Maintaining human oversight is crucial for accountability, transparency, and compliance with legal frameworks, such as the EU AI Act, which mandates human involvement in high-risk AI applications.
