Las Vegas Will Use AI To Protect Against Ransomware And Phishing

Las Vegas is one of the most bustling U.S. cities and because of the large casino operations in the city and electronic transfers of millions of dollars every day, cyber security is of prime importance. The city's information security team, which comprises of only three people, relies on artificial intelligence (AI) to protect it against ransomware and phishing. "The things that keep me up most are ransomware and phishing. Some of the simplest attacks but the hardest to defend against." Las Vegas chief information officer Michael Sherwood told TechCrunch Friday.
