Summary

As cybersecurity challenges evolve, ML and AI are increasingly pivotal in shaping the future of security automation. This chapter provided a comprehensive overview of how ML and AI, particularly through Python, are transforming security practices and their future potential. Let’s summarize how they are doing this:

• Advancements in threat detection: ML and AI are enhancing threat detection capabilities by analyzing vast amounts of data to identify patterns and anomalies that signify potential threats. Future advancements will likely include more sophisticated models that can detect increasingly complex and subtle cyber threats.
• Enhanced anomaly detection: AI-driven systems are becoming more adept at identifying deviations from normal behavior, which helps in detecting unknown threats. As these models improve, they will offer more precise and timely alerts, reducing false positives and improving overall security efficacy.
• Automated IR: AI is streamlining...
