Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Cybersecurity – Ankur Chowdhary – PSW #658
With advent of Internet of Things (IoT) and emerging cloud technologies, ensuring continued cybersecurity at scale is a challenging task. An ever growing increase in demand of cybersecurity workforce makes the problem even more challenging. In this talk we will explore how autonomous solutions based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) can help in bridging the gap, by automating current cybersecurity tools and techniques. We will also discuss if current AI solutions can be practical at scale or simply marketing/media hype.
