Why AI is set to play a big role in cyber security space

Dubai: Artificial intelligence (AI) will play a stronger role in the cyber security space in the future and the key purpose is to initially help automate mundane tasks, like prioritising security logs, so that companies can reduce the human time and effort. Unfortunately, what mostly happens today is cyber blindness, essentially because there is no way to manually check the huge amount of data that cyber experts process every day. The industry is faced with two options again: to leave the data as it is, leaving the possibility open of looking back to the past to verify data or to develop something, which could help solutions providers to analyse real time logs and take decisions. The second option is called machine learning or AI. More and more organisations are choosing machine learning and artificial intelligence today.
