The use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies by bad actors has been amplifying the challenges IT and security teams have in securing their organizations. From new exploits to deep fakes to advanced phishing emails and other tactics, cybercriminals are using AI to penetrate defenses faster and more decisively than ever before. This means that already stressed IT and security teams will only feel further pressure to keep up with an already daunting threat landscape.
