Cyber security currently has a strive in so far as the technologies it uses are concerned as Artificial Intelligence (AI) is on the process of bringing into the field new improved technology to counter the ever emerging threats. In this sample, the company called Essential InfoSec, which specializes in the field of cybersecurity, describes the opportunities provided by Artificial intelligence within the framework of ensuring the protection of electronic resources.

1. Threat Detection and Prevention

AI is most effective when it comes to the determination of threats that may lead to a major disaster.

• Anomaly Detection: AI can learn normal behavior patterns and deviations that may pose a threat therefore can be used to detect security threats.
• Real-Time Monitoring: AI system offers continuous vigilance of the threats and give real time responses to them.
• Predictive Analytics: Depending on the analysis of the historical record of cyber threats and risks, AI is capable of predicting them for the future.

2. Automated Incident Response

AI can significantly reduce the Time-To-Response of incidents, thus, reducing the level of damages and cost of recovery.

• Immediate Action: AI can respond to threats by triggers whereby it runs through a set of response strategies to address the threat.
• Reduced Human Error: Responses of this type do not involve human mistakes when it comes to delicate moments.
• Scalability: AI is capable to protect all incidents at the same time for appropriate coverage in case of occurrence.

3. Enhanced Security Analytics

AI increases the feature strength of security analytics through new perspectives on possible outcomes and patterns.

• Data Correlation: AI can easily link information from other sources to give an overall preview of the security situation.
• Advanced Pattern Recognition: AI can detect some characteristics which conventional systems may not notice.
• Actionable Insights: AI takes the unstructured data and makes them usable for organizations thus assisting in decision-making processes.

4.Proactive Vulnerability Management

AI plays a role of early detection and prevention of the vulnerabilities, hence decreasing the chances of exploitation.

• Continuous Scanning: Through the use of AI, scanning for the vulnerability in the network, systems, or applications is done constantly.
• Prioritization: AI is also useful in ranking the detected vulnerabilities by risk so that the most sensitive problems are solved in the first place.
• Patch Management: In this aspect, AI can help in the timely update and patch management, and lessening the threats encountered.

Because of AI, there are numerous benefits in cybersecurity such as effective threat detection, automation of incident response and more. In relation to this, Essential InfoSec seeks to develop ways of maintaining a competitive edge in the advanced use of AI in fighting cyber threats and protection of digital resources. In this respect AI occupies a strategic place in the defense against the ever growing cyber threats threatening today’s organization.
