Artificial Intelligence Impact on Cyber Security

Information technology and the world of web are increasing at a very fast pace and so are increasing the crimes related with cyber world. Cyber systems are much prone to various kinds of threats, intrusions and dynamically evolving risks related with them. Software based on conventional security algorithms and mere and human involvement is inadequate for ensuring complete cyber security. Thus, there is an increasing requirement for more powerful and intelligent cyber defense systems to serve the purpose of providing cyber security. The innovative practices of Artificial Intelligence are getting more popular in assisting users to fight crimes and related problems in cyber space. The purpose of this paper is to review cyber security, its associated risks and the advancements made so far by applying Artificial Intelligence methods in cyber defense. The paper also aims in demonstrating he applicability and effectiveness of these AI techniques in present scenario.
