Just a few years ago, much of the discussion on artificial intelligence (AI) was probably more bluster than benefit. But now, the pace of AI innovation and the positive and negative impacts it can have on organizations has entered a new phase. In cybersecurity, the advent of meaningful and disruptive AI tools and their use by cybercriminals amplifies the complexity and urgency to secure organizations and their digital infrastructures from emerging AI-based cyberthreats. The good news is that cybersecurity vendors have been applying various AI technologies for years. But when it comes to a future full of bad actors using AI-based tactics, it’s critical for security and IT leaders and their teams to evolve their security strategies to address these sophisticated new threats.
