Deep Instinct Eyes Deep Learning Cybersecurity PYMNTS.com

Machine learning is perhaps the hottest buzzword in cybersecurity today. The artificial intelligence technology is deployed by cybersecurity firms in an effort to keep pace with the evolution of cyberattacks, as machine learning algorithms are able to improve predictability the more it is used. But according to Guy Caspi, CEO of cybersecurity company Deep Instinct, machine learning is no longer enough in an age of unprecedented evolution and volume of cybercrime. G DATA researchers recently found that last year a new malware specimen surfaced every 4.6 seconds. In the first quarter of 2017, it reduced to every 4.2 seconds, meaning millions and millions of new malware surfaced every year.
