Introduction to Cybersecurity
• Cybersecurity protects systems, networks, and
data from malicious attacks.
• Examples of Cyber Threats:
• - Phishing
• - Ransomware
• - Malware
• - Insider Threats
Evolution of Cyber Threats
• 1. Early Threats (1980s-2000s): Basic viruses
and worms.
• 2. Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs):
Targeted and stealthy.
• 3. AI-Driven Threats (Today): Sophisticated
malware and ransomware.
Challenges in Traditional
Cybersecurity
• - Volume of Data: Millions of events logged
daily.
• - Reactive Nature: Most systems act after a
breach.
• - High False Positives: Manual reviews increase
workload.
• - Human Limitations: Inability to monitor 24/7
effectively.
Role of AI in Cybersecurity
- Proactive Detection: AI predicts threats before they occur.
- Automated Analysis: Processes data in real-time.
- Behavioral Insights: Detects anomalies in user/system behavior.
- Adaptive Learning: AI evolves to combat new threats.
AI Workflow in Cybersecurity

Applications of AI in Cybersecurity
• 1. Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems
(IDPS): Monitors network traffic.
• 2. Fraud Detection: Identifies anomalies in
financial transactions.
• 3. Phishing Prevention: Detects suspicious
links and emails.
• 4. Threat Intelligence: Analyzes global data for
early warnings.
Conclusion
• AI enhances cybersecurity by making it faster,
smarter, and more efficient.
• Final Thoughts: Human expertise and AI must
work together to secure the future.
