Description
Please note: no video is available for this presentation.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is poised to fill an important role in cybersecurity, offering advanced capabilities that can aid in detecting, mitigating, and preventing cyber attacks. However, AI presents significant challenges as adversarial attackers increasingly exploit AI vulnerabilities. This paper examines AI's potential to help enhance cybersecurity measures while addressing its limitations and risks. Through a review of current AI applications and frameworks, this paper identifies opportunities for improving defense mechanisms against sophisticated and complex cyberattacks. This discussion explores ethical considerations, the role of anomaly detection, and the integration of AI in guarding critical infrastructure. Recommendations for future research emphasize the need for explainable AI (XAI) and organizational collaboration to safeguard the digital landscape in all forms, from schools to smart cities.
