How AI is helping in the fight against cybercrime Newsflash

Organisations are becoming so overwhelmed with data relating to cybersecurity that they are having to turn to artificial intelligence (AI) in order to keep abreast of it all. More than half of them reported that they were using or looking to use AI because their organisations had too much data to deal with. The machine-learning systems can help by processing huge volumes of data in a way that would be impossible for human analysts. Some cyber-attacks can be identified and blocked automatically. The AI can also alert human analysts to areas of data that they should be paying particular attention to, allowing them to respond to threats more effectively.
