Zero-day attacks are considered the number one cybersecurity threat to company networks large and small. Understand what they are, why it’s so hard to detect them, and how artificial intelligence (AI) is helping to solve this modern problem.
The cybersecurity provider landscape is cluttered with impossible claims, misrepresentations, and a confusing mix of inconsistent terminology. Worse, every minute you delay making a decision is another minute hackers have to gain access and knowledge about your network.
This is the final article in a three-part series on Network Baselining. Read the first two articles in the series here:
1) An Introduction to Baselining Technology
2) How to Create a Baseline for Your Network
We separate the parts that are wavelike and we separate the parts that are stochastic. Then, five minutes later we look again and compare what we’ve seen historically and what the AI has predicted to happen to the current state of the network. If they are different, that’s an anomaly detected.
This is the first installment of the three part blog series on creating baselines of network behavior to improve your security stance. Here we will walk you through the basics of baselining technology.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are often used interchangeably when discussing developments in deep learning. However, there is an important difference between the two that network security professionals will need to understand in order to serve their clientele effectively.
In the face of intelligent cyber threats, the best defense is to supplement traditional methods with anomaly detection through unsupervised artificial intelligence (AI).
Mixmode’s platform utilizes third-wave, context-aware AI to inform the user of threats (including Zero-Day, and encrypted traffic) on their network, and reduces the rate of false positives in intel and alerts consistently by 90% or more.
Unsupervised artificial intelligence, also known as context-aware or third-wave AI, is notoriously difficult to explain because there lacks an appropriate test to understand just how powerful the intelligence is. The widely known Turing Test for AI testing is no longer the right framework for modern-day AI testing.
From Network Detection and Response (NDR) to potentially helping to displace passwords as the user authentication standard, there are many reasons why AI is helping advance modern cybersecurity.
850 senior executives from Information Security, Cybersecurity, and IT Operations in seven industries across ten countries were recently surveyed by consulting and technology services firm, Capgemini, in their “Reinventing Cybersecurity with Artificial Intelligence” report. The goal being to understand today’s benefits, complexities, and levels of implementation of AI in cybersecurity across IT (information technology), OT (operation …

“The biggest misconception people have about endpoints is that they have an idea of what their endpoints really are. The security industry has rightly taught defense-in-depth & blocking. However, too many companies rely solely on that concept, and aren’t prepared for what happens when something is breached. That breach, when it happens, will take place …
