Remember the good old days, when the only devices a company had to worry about were the PCs on its own network? Today, security teams must yearn for those times as they struggle to protect endpoint devices everywhere. Darktrace is mirroring the approach it takes to security at the core of the network with an endpoint agent that uses machine learning to protect PCs. "The way we operate our businesses has changed so drastically over the last few years," says Justin Fier, the company's Director of Cyber Intelligence & Analytics.

The artificial intelligence market share is expected to increase by $76.44 billion from 2020 to 2025, with an accelerated CAGR of 21%, according to the recent market study by Technavio. The US is the key market for artificial intelligence in North America.

These are examples of supply chain compromises that infiltrate a company's software directly, but there's another common attack vector; email. How can you filter it from the herd of legitimate emails entering your systems? Darktrace argues that it's time for a new approach.

GTC Check Point Software has put Nvidia GPUs and artificial intelligence techniques to work across its broad portfolio of security tools in order to address and adapt better to an increasingly sophisticated and rapidly changing threat environment. Check Point is using AI to make life harder for those bad actors.

GTC Nvidia teased several updates to its Morpheus AI security framework at GTC this week, and also announced it would make the application framework generally available in April. In addition to releasing a pre-built version of Morpheus, Nvidia will also publish the framework's full source code on GitHub to allow developers to modify Morpheus and build security applications on top of the software.

The Italian privacy guarantor has imposed a fine of €20,000,000 on Clearview AI for implementing a biometric monitoring network in Italy without acquiring people's consent. Without ever acquiring those people's consent or informing them about the scraping of their biometric data, Clearview AI offered its clients a search service that employed artificial intelligence to match faces with identities and online activity.

Deep Instinct Threat Research team extensively monitored attack volumes and types and then extrapolated their findings to predict where the future of cybersecurity is heading, determine what motivates attackers, and most importantly, lays out the steps organizations can take now in order to protect themselves in the future. One of the most pronounced takeaways from this research on 2021 threat trends is that bad actors are becoming more successful at evading AI/ML technologies, prompting organizations to redouble efforts in the innovation race.

Security, orchestration, automation, and response platforms try to make analysts' lives easier by mapping out automated incident response playbooks that coordinate activities between security appliances. The AI comes in especially useful here given email's popularity as an attack vector.
