The world of cybersecurity is a constantly evolving landscape, with new threat vectors emerging almost daily. IT Security teams in businesses and corporations are faced with the challenging task of combating these threats and preparing for future cyberattacks. In addition to their defensive responsibilities, they are also asked to model potential future cyberattacks and enhance defensive strategies.

IT Security teams are overwhelmed and struggling to keep up with the demands placed upon them. Modeling the cyberthreat landscape is a laborious and time-consuming process, as it requires analyzing datasets from multiple intelligence feeds. However, there is a solution to this challenge: Artificial Intelligence (AI).

AI can be used to rapidly model the future cyberthreat landscape, providing valuable time for IT Security teams to focus on fighting off current threats and developing solutions for future variants. Practical AI for Cybersecurity explores the ways and methods in which AI can be used in cybersecurity, with a particular emphasis on its subcomponents of machine learning, computer vision, and neural networks. The book demonstrates how AI can be used to automate routine and ordinary tasks encountered by penetration testing and threat hunting teams, freeing up security professionals to focus on finding and discovering unknown vulnerabilities and weaknesses in their systems.

By leveraging AI, IT Security teams can improve their ability to detect and respond to cyberattacks, enhancing the overall security posture of their organizations. The use of AI in cybersecurity is a rapidly growing field, and there are many exciting opportunities for innovation and growth in the years to come. As technology continues to advance, we can expect to see even more sophisticated and effective AI-based solutions being developed to protect against emerging threats.
