7 Ways AI and ML Are Helping and Hurting Cybersecurity

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are now part of our everyday lives, and this includes cybersecurity. In the right hands, AI/ML can identify vulnerabilities and reduce incident response time. But in cybercriminals' hands, they can create significant harm. Here are seven positive and seven negative ways AI/ML is impacting cybersecurity.
