IoT Cybersecurity in the Future Could Pit AI against AI

It's no wonder that artificial intelligence is hot in cybersecurity. As the number of IoT devices is projected to reach into the tens of billions in coming years, enterprise companies will be compelled to embrace AI, machine learning and automation tools to help secure and manage their networks. Doing it the old-fashioned way will simply not be feasible. As a result, the field of cybersecurity is beginning to look like an endless game of chess that pits human hackers against AI-enhanced security professionals. "Already, it is possible to automate cybersecurity responses with machine learning and AI, which demonstrates the edge of what's possible," says T.J. Laher, senior solutions marketing manager at Cloudera.
