Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the game for cybersecurity by analyzing massive quantities of risk data to speed up response times and augment under-resourced security operations. However, as all technology before AI, aside from advantages, they always come with a downside as well. AI tools often require access to large amounts of data in order to analyze and detect patterns; thus, data that it processes can be sensitive or personally identifiable, and there is a risk that it could be exposed or stolen through a cyber attack. AI-powered security systems also require skilled professionals who can develop, implement, and manage the technology. However, there is currently a shortage of professionals with the necessary skills and experience to work with AI in cybersecurity.

In this episode we have Adi - Associate Principal Cybersecurity Consultant joining with Mr. Yusuf Purna - a veteran cyber leader to further discuss pros and cons about the AI role in cybersecurity.
