Security News > 2024 > June > Leveraging AI and automation for enhanced security operations

In this Help Net Security interview, Michelle Weston, VP of Security & Resiliency at Kyndryl, discusses the key challenges in security operations and how to address them.
How can AI and automation enhance the efficiency and accuracy of security operations?
How does tool sprawl affect security operations, and what are the best ways to manage or consolidate security tools?
Businesses should focus on procuring security services and capabilities that are flexible based on their specific needs, enabling them to consolidate security vendors, limit attack surfaces and centralize technologies.
Second, customers are looking for greater returns on their security investments that bolster cyber resilience, including tapping into their existing security toolset and teams to unlock greater threat insights across their IT estates.
For technology, we are seeing AI and machine learning being increasingly applied to drive security operations.
