Ivanti’s latest research found that cybersecurity teams are largely positive about the role of AI in protecting against and opposing AI-powered attacks. Yet, despite this optimism, many security professionals lack the proper understanding and defense strategy to address the risks today’s AI threat landscape poses.
How can cybersecurity teams prepare themselves to fend off sophisticated AI-powered attacks and leverage AI effectively in their security strategy?
Rob May, Founder and Executive Chairman of ramsac, joins host Jeff Abbott to discuss the most concerning AI threats cybersecurity teams must prepare for and the importance of having a documented, strategic approach to AI that combines both human expertise and AI-powered tools.
