AI can assist with cybersecurity functions in many ways. It can reinforce cyber threat intelligence by searching for characteristics of cyberattacks, strengthening defenses, analyzing data to authenticate users, and discovering clues as to the identity of specific cyberattackers. AI can also analyze massive quantities of risk data to speed up response times and augment under-resourced security operations. AI technologies like machine learning and Natural Language Processing (NLP) can provide rapid insights to cut through the noise of daily alerts, drastically reducing response times.

AI can help address many challenges in cybersecurity, such as the massive amounts of data that no amount of humans can help protect and the hundreds and thousands of devices to protect a single organization. AI improves its knowledge to “understand” cybersecurity threats and cyber risk by consuming billions of data artifacts. It analyzes relationships between threats like malicious files, suspicious IP addresses or insiders in seconds or minutes. In addition, experts can learn a lot about vulnerabilities in their network or software and the threat actors who try to attack it by using AI to set up honeypots on decoy servers.

AI is being used in a variety of ways to improve cybersecurity. Some of the most common applications of AI in cybersecurity include:

• Malware detection: AI can be used to detect malware by analyzing its behavior and comparing it to known malware signatures.
• Network intrusion detection: AI can be used to monitor network traffic for suspicious activity, such as unauthorized access or data exfiltration.
• User behavior analytics: AI can be used to track user behavior and identify suspicious activity, such as clicking on phishing links or downloading malicious files.
• Vulnerability scanning: AI can be used to scan systems for known vulnerabilities.
• Security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR): AI can be used to automate security tasks, such as incident response and remediation.

Risk-based Vulnerability Management (RBVM)

How big data and AI saved the day: critical IP almost walked out the door Cybersecurity threats have evolved beyond what traditional SIEMs and firewalls can detect. We present case studies highlighting how: An advanced manufacturer was able to identify new insider threats, enabling them to protect their IP A media company’s security operations center was able to verify they weren’t the source of a high-profile media leak. The common thread across these real-world case studies is how businesses can expand their threat analysis using security analytics powered by artificial intelligence in a big data environment. Cybersecurity threats increasingly require the aggregation and analysis of multiple data sources. Siloed tools and technologies serve their purpose, but can’t be applied to look across the ever-growing variety and volume of traffic. Big data technologies are a proven solution to aggregating and analyzing data across enormous volumes and varieties of data in a scalable way. However, as security professionals well know, more data doesn’t mean more leads or detection. In fact, all too often more data means slower threat hunting and more missed incidents. The solution is to leverage advanced analytical methods like machine learning. Machine learning is a powerful mathematical approach that can learn patterns in data to identify relevant areas to focus. By applying these methods, we can automatically learn baseline activity and detect deviations across all data sources to flag high-risk entities that behave differently from their peers or past activity.

"Security: Computing in an Adversarial Environment," Carrie Gates Apr. 12, 2012: "Security: Computing in an Adversarial Environment," presented by Carrie Gates, CA Labs; moderated by Christopher W. Clifton, Purdue University. Security is inherently different from other aspects of computing due to the presence of an adversary. As a result, identifying and addressing security vulnerabilities requires a different mindset from traditional engineering. Proper security engineering—or the lack of it!—affects everything from website scripts to supply chain management to electronic health records to social networks to mobile phones...and the list goes on. Security is further complicated by the translation of social notions—such as identity and trust— into an online world. Worse, security itself is often viewed by both developers and users as the adversary! This learning webinar will introduce the fundamentals of security, describe the security mindset, and highlight why achieving security is difficult. What you'll learn: The security mindset what it is, why it's needed The social side of security usability, adoption, identity, trust A deeper dive on insider threat as a case study what it is, how to detect it, how to prevent it Presenter: Carrie Gates, Senior Vice President and Director of Research, CA Labs Dr. Gates has opened new avenues for collaboration in the field of cyber security for CA Technologies by leveraging government programs that further research between CA Labs and academia. She has given over 20 invited talks internationally, authored more than 40 peer-reviewed publications related to information security, and co-authored an amendment on cloud security research for the America Competes Act that was signed into law in December 2010. In October 2010, Dr. Gates was recognized for her work with a Women of Influence award from CSO magazine. Moderator: Christopher W. Clifton, Associate Professor of Computer Science, Purdue University Dr. Clifton works on data privacy, particularly with respect to analysis of private data.

Deep Learning For Realtime Malware Detection - Domenic Puzio and Kate Highnam Domain generation algorithm (DGA) malware makes callouts to unique web addresses to avoid detection by static rules engines. To counter this type of malware, we created an ensemble model that analyzes domains and evaluates if they were generated by a machine and thus potentially malicious. The ensemble consists of two deep learning models – a convolutional neural network and a long short-term memory network, both which were built using Keras and Tensorflow. These deep networks are flexible enough to learn complex patterns and do not require manual feature engineering. Deep learning models are also very difficult for malicious actors to reverse engineer, which makes them an ideal fit for cyber security use cases. The last piece of the ensemble is a natural-language processing model to assess whether the words in the domain make sense together. These three models are able to capture the structure and content of a domain, determining whether or not it comes from DGA malware with very high accuracy. These models have already been used to catch malware that vendor tools did not detect. Our system analyzes enterprise-scale network traffic in real time, renders predictions, and raises alerts for cyber security analysts to evaluate. Domenic Puzio is a Data Engineer with Capital One. He graduated from the University of Virginia with degrees in Mathematics and Computer Science. On his current project he is a core developer of a custom platform for ingesting, processing, and analyzing Capital One’s cyber-security data sources. Built entirely from opensource tools (NiFi, Kafka, Storm, Elasticsearch, Kibana), this framework processes hundreds of millions of events per hour. Currently, his focus is on the creation and productionization of machine learning models that provide enrichment to the data being streamed through the system. He is a contributor to two Apache projects. Kate Highnam has a background in Computer Science and Business, focusing on security, embedded devices, and accounting. At the University of Virginia, her thesis was a published industrial research paper containing an attack scenario and repair algorithm for drones deployed on missions with limited ground control contact. After joining Capital One as a Data Engineer, Kate has developed features within an internal DevOps Pipeline and Data Lake governance system. Currently, she builds machine learning models to assist cybersecurity experts and enhance defenses.

• Zero Trust Architecture | NIST
• Conditional Access design principles and dependencies | Microsoft
• Zero trust security model | Wikipedia

Zero Trust architecture is a cybersecurity approach that assumes breaches will occur and uses risk-based access controls to limit the damage from an attack. Instead of only guarding an organization’s perimeter, Zero Trust architecture protects each file, email, and network by authenticating every identity and device. Rather than just securing one network, Zero Trust architecture also helps secure remote access, personal devices, and third-party apps. The principles of Zero Trust are: Verify explicitly, Use least privileged access, Assume breach and Require end-to-end encryption.

Part of... software-defined networking (SD-WAN) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). SASE delivers wide-area networking with cybersecurity both on-site and in the cloud as DoD expands its reliance on cloud data storage. One of the key tenants of zero trust involves identity. Thunderdome will use identity verification, including public key infrastructure (PKI), which uses a certificate to validate data being sent from one point to another, and identity credentialing and access management (ICAM). ICAM verifies a person’s identity and links them to their allowed access privileges. - Thunderdome hits its targets, DISA moves to next phase of zero trust | Alexandra Lohr - Federal New Network

• Revolutionizing Patch Management: Meeting Modern Infrastructure and Workspace Needs | E-SPIN

Also, AI models help in the automatic analysis of patch risk and carry out the complete life-cycle of each version release. AI-driven patch management helps in automatically identifying new patch or application release with the help of AI-models. Based on this automated discovery of the new patch, the new version update will take place across all servers and applications. AI-based patch management relies in part on algorithms that need a continual stream of data in order to keep “learning” and assessing patch vulnerabilities. There are several benefits of using AI in patch management. AI-driven patch management enables you to automate your entire application version change management. This automation is made possible with the use of advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies. Also, AI models help in the automatic analysis of patch risk and carry out the complete life-cycle of each version release. Automating patch management while capitalizing on diverse datasets and integrating it into an RBVM platform is a perfect use case of AI in cybersecurity. Leading AI-based patch management systems can interpret vulnerability assessment telemetry and prioritize risks by patch type, system and endpoint.
