This article addresses the critical intersection of human factors and AI-driven security systems, focusing on how usability issues in cybersecurity protocols lead to workarounds that undermine automated defenses. By shifting from viewing users as vulnerabilities to treating them as essential defenders, NIST aims to create guidelines that prevent burnout and improve the effectiveness of both human oversight and AI monitoring tools. Ultimately, practical guidelines grounded in user experience are necessary to mitigate risks where poor process design causes professionals to bypass security measures, a challenge increasingly relevant as AI systems rely on consistent human input.
