Original: US Cybersecurity Job Postings Fall 26% as AI Security Engineer Demand Soars

The shift suggests employers are cutting generalist security roles while redirecting hiring toward specialists who can secure AI systems. Commenters see it as a sign of restructuring across the industry, with traditional security jobs giving way to AI-focused positions.

Why now: The sharp decline in overall postings combined with surging AI security hiring signals a major shift in the tech job market.
