| | SEPTEMBER 20239CIOReviewdepartment to take care of. Developing an awareness of the threats and taking basic precautions to ensure safety should be a fundamental part of everyone's HR goal in 2023.Some Of the Major Predicaments in the Cybersecurity SpaceArtificial Intelligence (AI) Enabled HackingMachine learning algorithms can examine the vast amount of data moving across networks in real-time far more effectively than humans ever could and learn to recognize patterns that indicate a threat. Unfortunately, AI, hackers, and criminals are growing increasingly proficient at using it too. AI algorithms are used to identify systems with weak security or that are likely to contain valuable data among the computers and networks connected to the internet. It can also be used to create large numbers of personalized phishing emails designed to trick receivers into divulging sensitive information and become increasingly good at evading automated email defense systems designed to filter out this type of mail. Visibility To Threats Inside the NetworkThe endpoint detection mechanisms, security monitoring functioning, and detecting malicious activity in our network promptly invoke the right response. All these are like running 24x7 and 365 days. With the pace of vulnerability identification and exploit development, it is difficult to keep defenses current and know for certain that we can thwart all attacks. That is why it is important to regularly test our processes and tools to make sure that we can prevent or detect of-the-moment attack techniques.Anticipating What Users Will DoPredicting the unpredictable. There's more that users will do. They click links and post on social media. We do not know when our users will be targeted and fall victim to a phishing attack. Scenario-based pieces of training and awareness are being executed. But it has become a never-ending action. The awareness started yearly, then monthly. now, we do it weekly.We need to anticipate the worst and be ready for prevention. We need to make sure our organizational cultures allow and incentivize users to be vigilant and empower them to challenge authority and slow things down when something smells phishy.Technological Trends which Excite Me for the Future of the Cyber Security SpaceArtificial Intelligence or Machine Learning is the future of cybersecurity. Machine learning has the potential to help organizations not only detect threats but also mitigate them before they have any little chance to impact their operations. AI (Artificial Intelligence) is an umbrella term for technology that mimics human cognition. AI can be used to automate tasks in a wide range of fields, including cybersecurity. Artificial Intelligence and the future of cybersecurity are connected so tightly, as AI will have a huge impact on cybersecurity. The greater the amount of data generated, the greater the number of cyber threats. As a result, we are finding it increasingly difficult to keep up. AI has the potential to improve many aspects of cyber security, including incident response, creating awareness, malware detection, and so on. Tech-Enabled Security AwarenessWe have created a Cyber Security Awareness platform, where users can attend quizzes, self-access their knowledge on Cyber Security, and get trained on scenario-based training.Ex- An employee on the shop floor can learn all the possible use cases related to security on the shop floor. Similarly, a program developer can learn about secure communication to APIs exposed in our cloud.This helps in addressing user-specific pieces of training or awareness, which is not common for all types of users in an organization. Also, we can concentrate on what information is shared, which is very critical for the set of users to know.
