One of the most common use cases for the role of AI in cybersecurity is support for human analysts. After all, AI is unlikely to ever replace experienced security analysts. It is far more likely to augment humans in areas where machines excel, such as analyzing big data, eliminating fatigue and freeing up humans from tedious tasks so they can utilize more sophisticated skills, like creativity, nuance and expertise. In some cases, analyst augmentation involves incorporating predictive analytics into security operations center (SOC) workflows for triage or querying big data sets. Darktrace's Cyber AI Analyst is a software program that supports human analysts by only surfacing high-priority events. Meanwhile, it queries massive data and pivots across networks to gather context for investigations, conduct them and sort out low-priority cases.
