Beyond ChatGPT: AI Use Cases for Cybersecurity | Analyst Chat 229

How can artificial intelligence be used in cybersecurity? Matthias and Alexei asked ChatGPT exactly this question and it came up with quite a list of use cases. They go through this list and discuss it. They explore the different forms of AI aside from generative AI, such as non-generative AI and traditional machine learning. They highlight the limitations and risks associated with large language models like GPTs and the need for more sustainable and efficient AI solutions.

The conversation covers various AI use cases in cybersecurity, including threat detection, behavioral analytics, cloud security monitoring, and automated incident response. They emphasize the importance of human involvement and decision-making in AI-driven cybersecurity solutions.

Here's ChatGPT's list of AI use cases for cybersecurity:
1. AI for Threat Detection
AI analyzes large datasets to identify anomalies or suspicious activities that signal potential cyber threats.

2. Behavioral Analytics
AI tracks user behavior to detect abnormal patterns that may indicate compromised credentials or insider threats.

3. Cloud Security Monitoring
AI monitors cloud infrastructure, detecting security misconfigurations and policy violations to ensure compliance.

4. Automated Incident Response
AI helps automate responses to cyber incidents, reducing response time and mitigating damage.

5. Malware Detection
AI-driven solutions recognize evolving malware signatures and flag zero-day attacks through advanced pattern recognition.

6. Phishing Detection
AI analyzes communication patterns, spotting phishing emails or fake websites before users fall victim.

7. Vulnerability Management
AI identifies system vulnerabilities, predicts which flaws are most likely to be exploited, and suggests patch prioritization.

8. AI-Driven Penetration Testing
AI automates and enhances pen-testing by simulating potential cyberattacks and finding weaknesses in a network.

9. Anomaly Detection in Network Traffic
AI inspects network traffic for unusual patterns, preventing attacks like Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS).

10. Cybersecurity Training Simulations
AI-powered platforms create dynamic, realistic simulations for training cybersecurity teams, preparing them for real-world scenarios.

11. Threat Intelligence
NLP-based AI interprets textual data like threat reports, social media, and news to assess emerging risks.

12. Predictive Risk Assessment
AI assesses and predicts potential future security risks by evaluating system vulnerabilities and attack likelihood.
