"How AI and Cybersecurity Will Intersect in 2020"

Artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies (AI/ML) are expected to grow in sophistication and application in the cybersecurity field as well as in the realm of business. However, the growth of these advanced technologies will be accompanied by new risks and threats as adversaries also apply AI/ML in the performance of attacks or exploit the vulnerabilities in AI/ML technologies. CISOs and security professionals must continue exploring AI/ML technologies regarding the new risks and threat models that will emerge when these technologies are applied. It is also important to discover new areas of expertise and security solutions that will be needed with the increased implementation of AI/ML technologies. The security industry needs to be aware of the different attacks that can be executed against AI/ML models such as data poisoning as well as the malicious activities that can be powered by AI/ML such as the creation of deepfakes. This article continues to discuss the growth in AI/ML and the threats posed by these technologies that the security industry should look out for.
