Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) plays a critical role in enhancing cyber defense by improving the detection, mitigation, and prevention of cyber threats. AI technologies like machine learning (ML) and automated threat detection can analyze large data sets in real time, identify malicious patterns, and respond swiftly, boosting cybersecurity capabilities. AI also enhances predictive measures, allowing preventative actions against potential attacks. AI integration faces challenges such as the rise of AI-driven cyberattacks, concerns about data privacy, algorithmic based biases, and the risk of over-confidence on automated systems and models. Ensuring transparency of AI decisions is crucial for trust and effectiveness. It is essential to address these challenges through research, robust AI governance, and collaboration between AI and cybersecurity experts. To strengthen and maximize cyber defense and secure digital environments against sophisticated cyber threats, we need robust approaches.
