Artificial Intelligence Accelerates Searches for "Cyber Attacks"

Experts at Kaspersky, a company specializing in information security, stated that "artificial intelligence technologies will help accelerate searches for cyber attacks targeting information technology systems." In an interview with the Izvestia website, Timur Byachuev, the head of the company's work with enterprises, said, "In two years, about 90% of large companies and government agencies worldwide will use artificial intelligence technologies in their operations. This will help identify vulnerabilities in software and protect it from cyber attacks." He added, "According to studies conducted by our company, only 54% of large companies globally currently use artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to develop their business operations, while 33% plan to adopt these technologies in the next two years. This contributes to business development, but there are also some risks associated with using these technologies related to protecting new digital assets." Byachuev noted that "when planning to design their cybersecurity systems, companies should use systems capable of protecting their data from classical digital threats and those related to artificial intelligence technologies."
