AI Is Rewriting Cybersecurity's Rules

AI is giving cybercriminals new speed and scale, but researchers say the technology could also become one of cybersecurity’s strongest defenses. "AI is dramatically speeding up cyberattacks," said Brendan Saltaformaggio, OMSCS instructor and associate professor in the SCP and the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). "AI can identify vulnerabilities far faster than humans and often in places humans wouldn't think to look."
