Part 1: Setting the Stage
The third question in our 5-part series about AI's impact on networks is a good one! Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become both a headwind and a tailwind for enterprises, as hackers exploit vulnerabilities in days that could have taken months or years to identify in the past.
At the same time, AI has become an invaluable tool for enhancing network cyber resilience, allowing faster response times, more efficient resource use, less alert fatigue, and more time to develop targeted remediation strategies.
Watch as BackBox VP of Infrastructure and Technology, Richard Phillips, answers this important question in the video below.
