Ensuring cybersecurity is becoming an integral part of the development of artificial intelligence, which at the same time plays a key role in supporting efforts to protect digital systems. It would seem to be a perfect pairing, but only with properly implemented security solutions can AI systems operate in a manner that is resistant to cyberattacks. Opportunities and threats Artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized many aspects of technology, and its application in cybersecurity offers enormous opportunities. AI also has the potential to revolutionize the virtual space protection sector, but its effectiveness will depend on how it is implemented and developed—after all, on the one hand, AI supports defense against threats, and on the other, it increasingly generates those threats. With AI, incident response can be automated, minimizing the time needed to respond to a report. AI-powered systems can automatically block malicious IP addresses or immediately isolate infected devices on the network. On the other hand, [...]
