Generative AI is everywhere
As a phenomenon that has taken the internet by storm, generative AI is increasingly being tested for business functions, including cybersecurity. Generative AI-powered solutions can search through vast amounts of data to identify abnormal behavior and detect malicious activity. Consequently, CEOs and IT professionals alike expect generative AI to be increasingly used to bolster cybersecurity, offering greater speed, accuracy, and cost-effectiveness.
The other side of the coin
Despite the security benefits of generative AI, there is the other side of the coin to account for, as the same advantages can also benefit hostile actors’ capabilities, such as phishing, malware development, and deepfakes. Looking forward, companies will have to adapt and stay up to speed so that generative AI does not end providing overall cyber advantage to attackers.
