Abstract

This chapter focuses on the revolutionary role of generative AI and deep learning in transforming Cyber Security. It emphasizes that these technologies could significantly enhance security measures. Generative AI simulates complex threats and identifies vulnerabilities, and through its combination with deep learning algorithms that detect patterns and anomalies from massive datasets, it creates a new frontier for proactive threat management. It involves data preparation, model development, and performance evaluation, in which accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 scores are some of the critical metrics that facilitate iterative improvement. Novel AI-enabled Cyber Security approaches are also pointed out, like real-time threat intelligence, blockchain technology integration, and developing stronger AI models against sophisticated cyber threats. With all the benefits of AI to detect, prevent, and counter cyberattacks, challenges abound in adversarial attacks, privacy, and ethical issues.

The role of AI in Cyber Security continuously evolves, which remains open to the opportunity of monitoring large-scale data and emerging threats with potential simulation of attack scenarios. ...
