Artificial Intelligence, Speed of Cyber attacks and Cyber-Security

Risk Group Founder, Jayshree Pandya Ph.D  discusses “Artificial intelligence,Speed of Cyber Attacks and Cyber-Security”, with Fritz Venter, Founder and CEO of Computed Future on Risk Roundup.   Introduction As nations: its government, industries, organizations and academia (NGIOA) aim for broader capabilities beyond geospace and its geographical boundaries, the emerging interconnected and interdependent systems of Cyberspace-Geospace and Space (CGS) are creating complex challenges that seem to be beyond human intelligence, speed and capabilities. The biggest hurdle in managing cyber-security risks is probably the speed of the cyber- attacks and the amount of data and its inter-dependencies that must be analyzed in order to be able to respond in real time. There is a growing belief that cyber-security or cyber- defense cannot be handled by humans with the current traditional tools that they have and without a considerable level of automation, due to the dynamic nature of the security threats. As Intelligence is key for competition, communication and collaboration in cyberspace, geospace and space, it is hoped that, the application of processes of artificial intelligence could help to dynamically respond to cyber threats by implementing learning capability in software. While the ability to create autonomous intelligent robots with perception, cognition, and action, able to coexist with humans can be viewed as the ultimate and most challenging goal of artificial intelligence, the immediate priorities are perhaps to secure the cyberspace.
