Is artificial intelligence the future of network security?

Artificial intelligence must be the future for network security, according to Fortinet. With the threat landscape constantly evolving and increasing in complexity, continued digital innovation, technological developments, and the introduction of 5G, coupled with the challenges of accelerated remote working practices and a growing cybersecurity skills gap, have collectively exacerbated the challenges that CISOs face in terms of protecting their companies' digital assets. As CISOs assess their cybersecurity posture, it's essential that they consider how to leverage new and emerging technologies to best protect their infrastructure, the company says. There have been significant developments in the artificial intelligence (AI) space that make it an increasingly strategic investment. However, Fortinet says it can be challenging for CISOs to cut through the hype and understand which AI-based solution is best suited to their organisation.
