Therefore, the key to the future of cyber security is also AI, triggering an AI arms race for smart buildings and connected enterprises against evolving cyber-criminals. “The increased cyber risks generated by digital transformation and IoT device proliferation creates a critical mass of data that many argue merits the usage of AI-powered analytics to manage,” reads our latest cybersecurity research. “One key advantage that AI holds over human intelligence […]
