Leveraging AI for Cybersecurity
In February 2011 an historic event took place. IBM’s Watson computer competed against the two biggest winners of the TV quiz show Jeopardy!— and the Watson won. Since that time artificial intelligence (AI) has found its way into increasingly more and different types of applications ranging from cancer treatment to cybersecurity.
