Document computer security and emergency measures policies, procedures, and tests.
Work task
“Document computer security and emergency measures policies, procedures, and tests.” is a core task performed by Information Security Analysts. Among the occupation's 12 rated tasks, workers place it 5th by importance (#8 most important). About 99% of workers say it is relevant to their job.
This is a single occupation-specific task statement from O*NET. The figures below describe how central the task is to the job and what independent studies measure about AI and this kind of work — not a prediction that the task will be automated.
Work activities this task rolls up to
O*NET groups concrete tasks into broader work activities shared across many occupations.
AI exposure
The OpenAI / Eloundou “GPTs are GPTs” study rates this task E1. Direct exposure — a language model could plausibly cut the time to do this task by at least half.
Exposure measures whether a model could meaningfully speed the task up — it is an estimate of overlap with model capabilities, not a measure of whether the work will be done by software. The study's intermediate score (β) for this task is 1.00. Automation potential label: T3.
How AI is actually used on this kind of task
The Anthropic Economic Index observes how people actually use AI on tasks like this one across millions of real conversations.
- 0.030% share of AI-use records mapped to this task
- 60% of that use is work-related
- Most common interaction: directive
- Average autonomy of the AI: 3.4 (1–5; higher = more autonomous)
- 96% of interactions still needed a human in the loop
Observed AI use describes people choosing to use AI as a tool on this kind of task today. It is augmentation and assistance, not a measure of jobs replaced.
Working with AI vs. handing it off
Of the AI conversations mapped to this task, the split between people working alongside AI and people delegating the task to it.
How people interact with AI on this task
| Interaction pattern | Share | % | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| directive | 41% | you give the instruction; AI produces a finished result | |
| task iteration | 35% | you and AI go back and forth on the work | |
| learning | 16% | you ask AI to explain or teach you | |
| validation | 4% | you do the work; AI checks it | |
| feedback loop | 2% | AI does it, then adjusts from your feedback |
