Demystifying AI/ML for Cybersecurity – Edward Wu, Ted Driggs – ESW #200
As attackers grow increasingly sophisticated, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications in cybersecurity are no longer a “nice to have.” But after years of being tossed around as a buzzword, it’s time to demystify AI/ML to expose how far the technologies have come and how they can keep your business secure if leveraged correctly. We discuss what the terms mean, why they’re critical for cybersecurity, and how/when to apply different types of AI/ML (including supervised, unsupervised, and deep learning) appropriately.
