Artificial intelligence (AI) brings a powerful new set of tools to the fight against threat actors, but choosing the right combination of libraries, test suites and trading models when building AI security systems is highly dependent on the situation. If you're thinking about adopting AI in your security operations center (SOC), the following questions and considerations can help guide your decision-making. Spam detection, intrusion detection, malware detection and natural language-based threat hunting are all very different problem sets that require different AI tools. Begin by considering what kind of AI security systems you need. Understanding the outputs helps you test data.
