Using Artificial Intelligence in Cybersecurity

Artificial Intelligence can enhance human intelligence.AI systems if used can be very beneficial in cybersecurity, AI systems can be trained to generate alerts for threats, identify new types of malware and protect sensitive data and could be very useful against cyber attacks.

According to research, a midsize company get alerts for over 200,000 cyber events every day. A team of security experts in a small company cannot deal with this volume of threats. Some of these threats will therefore, naturally go unnoticed and cause severe damage to company and data.

A lot of activity happens on a company’s network. An mid-sized company itself has huge traffic. That means there’s a lot of data transferred between customers and the business daily. This data needs protection from malicious people and software. AI system can handle a large amount of Data as compared to humans as computer systems are more efficient and fast as compared to a human.

AI technology is intelligent, and it uses its ability to improve network security over time. It uses machine learning and deep learning to learn a business network’s behavior over time. It recognizes patterns on the network and works on them.

The patterns that artificial systems learn over time can help to improve security in the future. Threats with similar traits to those recorded get blocked early enough. The fact that AI keeps learning makes it difficult for hackers to beat its intelligence.

Threats that systems face change from time to time. Hackers change their ways every day. That makes it difficult to prevent security tasks at a company. You may have to deal with attack .These attacks have similar potential but you must know what to deal with first. Bigger threats that can make security a challenge are human error and negligence. The solution here is to deploy AI on your network to detect all types of attacks and help you prioritize and prevent them.

A human being may not be able to identify all the threats a company faces. Every year, hackers launch hundreds of millions of attacks with different motives. Unknown threats can cause massive damage to a network. Worse still is the impact they can have before you detect, identify, and prevent them.

As attackers try new ways from social engineering to malware attacks, it is necessary to use modern solutions to prevent them. AI has proven to be one of the best technologies in mapping and stopping unknown threats .

It is important to understand the impact of the various security tools and security processes that you have employed to maintain a strong security posture. AI can help understand where your program has strengths, and where it has gaps.

Threat exposure, and controls effectiveness, AI-based systems can predict how and where you are most likely to be attacked by using machine laerning ,computer vision and deep learning, so that you can plan for resource and tool allocation towards areas of weakness. Prescriptive insights derived from AI analysis can help you configure and enhance controls and processes to most effectively improve your organization’s cyber securities.
