Artificial Intelligence for Cyber Security

Summary

Artificial intelligence (AI) has helped industries and society today to become modern and more productive. Using the Internet of Things (IoT), we can sense and transfer data through the Internet from one device to another and can perform/do tasks efficiently AI use today has been increased from one application to many, i.e., from the agriculture sector to weather prediction. In agriculture, the quality of soil and crop growing or crop cutting, etc., work can be performed with the help of AI; similarly in weather prediction, the situation of upcoming days can be identified, and AI can help in reducing causalities. Note that AI is more useful with IoT/smart devices. Around the world, when these sectors use IoT in their work, several cyber‐attacks or vulnerabilities are mitigated. which addresses the need to prevent, detect, and recover from any failure of systems. Such attacks need to be detected so quickly, but human/skilled professionals take a lot of time to trace and track or recover from such cyber‐attacks. Thus, in the near future, we predict what will happen when AI will help professionals to trace and track cyber‐attacks and avoid many huge losses. Identifying spam mail, junk mails, etc., is an example of machine learning. Hence, cyber security is the need of the hour because it is the need of every industry/business, especially critical businesses or sectors like healthcare. We are looking forward to providing innovative solutions to avoid such attacks or vulnerabilities by mitigation on a public network/infrastructure using artificial intelligence. We discuss about AI and its importance in intrusion detection/vulnerability detection (benefits, pitfalls, future uses), etc.
