A NYC area cyber security expert explains how to strengthen cyber security with AI in a new article. The informative article first relates that companies increasingly seek ways to employ artificial intelligence technologies (AI) to protect critical company assets and preserve business reputation. The author then asserts that AI-enhanced cyber security tools offer several advantages over traditional cyber security.

She continues by discussing how AI improves threat detection and remediation by analyzing vast amounts of data from various sources, employing machine learning to spot malicious activity. After discussing how AI is used to strengthen authentication and data loss prevention (DLP), she lists the benefits of AI-enhanced cyber security solutions, including reducing human error, improving efficiency, and discovering unknown threats.
“As organizations rely more heavily on digital technologies, they also face more frequent and sophisticated cyberattacks,” stated Jennifer Mazzanti, CEO, eMazzanti Technologies. “When used wisely and combined with human oversight, AI proves indispensable for protecting business assets in today’s digital environment.”
Below are a few excerpts from the article, “Proactive Companies Strengthen Cyber Security with AI.”
Improve Threat Detection and Remediation
“AI can analyze vast amounts of data from various sources, such as endpoints, networks, cloud services, identity systems, and applications. Then, using machine learning, it can then spot anomalies in that data that indicate possible malicious activity. AI can also learn from new data and adapt to changing threats, making it more effective than traditional rule-based systems.”
Strengthen Authentication and DLP
“AI plays a key role in zero trust security, which requires continuous identification of all users and devices. For instance, AI enables adaptive authentication, adjusting the level of verification based on the context and risk of each request. Using AI, organizations can define and enforce granular security policies based on device health, encryption, password strength and more.”

“Additionally, products like Microsoft Purview use AI to enhance DLP by automating the classification of sensitive data. Organizations can then use sensitive data labels to enforce automated policies for data sharing, encryption, and retention.”
Benefits of AI-enhanced Cyber Security Solutions
“Improve efficiency and reduce costs – AI gathers and analyzes data continuously, enabling dynamic incident detection and response. With AI, security teams can often address potential problems before damage occurs. And because AI handles the routine, time-consuming tasks, humans can focus on strategic activities.”
