info_outlineOne of the primary benefits of AI in cybersecurity is its ability to enhance perception and reasoning. Traditional security measures often rely on manual analysis of logs and data, which can be time-consuming and prone to human error. AI, on the other hand, can analyze vast amounts of data in real-time, detecting patterns and anomalies that may indicate malicious activity. This improved perception allows for early detection of threats and faster response times.
In this episode, we speak with Gregor Stewart, an executive at Sentinel One, about the intersection of AI and cybersecurity. Gregor shares his journey in the tech industry, from his early fascination with text adventure games to his academic studies in AI and cognitive science. He discusses the evolution of natural language processing (NLP) and how AI has transformed the field of cybersecurity. He also explains how Sentinel One uses AI to detect and mitigate malicious activity on endpoints and in cloud environments emphasizing the importance of automation and autonomy in cybersecurity and how AI can enhance the speed and accuracy of threat detection and response.
