The Future of AI in Cybersecurity

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into attacker strategies is changing the requirements for modern security concepts. Whether scaling highly personalized social engineering campaigns or executing complex botnet attacks—the automation employed by adversaries now makes the targeted use of AI technologies on the defensive side indispensable. This presentation will explore how companies can leverage AI to detect attacks. We will examine the transition from purely reactive protective measures to a proactive defense architecture that understands context and responds dynamically to new attack patterns. Alongside its potential, however, we will also address the limitations and risks of AI systems.
