Security News > 2020 > April > Deepfakes and AI: Fighting Cybersecurity Fire with Fire

Cybercriminals are using AI and ML to exploit vulnerabilities such as user behavior or security gaps to gain access to valuable business systems and data.
Tech companies are trying to stay ahead of the game by creating AI technologies that fight against AI attacks, including deepfakes.
Evolving cybersecurity threats also mean that enterprises must completely rethink their security approach to protect devices, apps, data and cloud services in a perimeter-less world where nothing and no one can be automatically trusted - a concept also known as zero trust.
Just as AI and ML are used to create deepfakes, they do have their perks and can be used to monitor whether a device has been impacted.
AI and ML are valuable tools that organizations can use to analyze all kinds of security parameters, including user location, devices, IP addresses, number of logins and more.
