Artificial intelligence is already redefining cybersecurity, exposing sophisticated attacks and adding a level of Terminator-style relentlessness to threat detection tools and anti-malware software.

But what does the future hold for AI in cybersecurity? Here's what they had to say. "The future will see self-healing and self-defending networks, which can leverage AI to take steps to fight and defend the network," said Tom McAndrew, COO of Coalfire, a provider of cyber risk management and compliance services.
