How does artificial intelligence impact cybersecurity?

Is AI an ally or a threat to your company’s cybersecurity? In a world where cyberattacks are growing in number and sophistication, artificial intelligence (AI) has become a key tool for both protecting businesses and cybercriminals looking for new ways to attack.

In this article, we will explore what artificial intelligence applied to cybersecurity is, how it can be used by both attackers and defenders, and what steps you can take to protect your business. In addition, we will show you how ProCiber our multi-layered cybersecurity solution with AI agents, can help you strengthen the security of your SME.

What is artificial intelligence for cybersecurity?

Artificial Intelligence applied to cybersecurity is the use of advanced machine learning algorithms and neural networks to identify, prevent and respond to digital threats in real time.

Rather than relying solely on predefined rules, AI analyzes patterns of behavior, detects anomalies and predicts potential attacks, enabling a rapid and effective response to emerging threats.

Some common uses of AI in cybersecurity include:

  • Threat detection: identification of malware, phishing attacks and unauthorized access.

  • Behavioral analysis: monitoring of users and devices to detect suspicious behavior.

  • Response automation: mitigation of threats without human intervention.

  • Predictive security: prevention of attacks based on historical patterns.

How does AI help cybercriminals?

Attackers have found ways to leverage artificial intelligence to improve the effectiveness of their cyberattacks. Among the most common uses are:

  • Deepfakes and advanced phishing: AI makes it possible to create fake emails and messages that are almost indistinguishable from the real thing, increasing the success of phishing attacks.

  • Automated attacks: AI-driven bots can make thousands of login attempts in seconds to crack weak passwords.

  • Adaptive malware: some viruses use AI to change their code and avoid detection by traditional security systems.

  • Vulnerability scanning: Cybercriminals can use AI to scan networks and find weaknesses in a matter of minutes.

These examples demonstrate why it is vital for SMEs to strengthen their security with advanced and always up-to-date solutions.

How does Artificial Intelligence help your company’s cybersecurity?

Fortunately, AI is also a powerful ally in the fight against cybercrime. Here are some examples of how it is used:

  • Real-time behavioral analysis: identifies suspicious access and automatically blocks unusual activity.

  • Advanced Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS/IPS): use AI to recognize and respond to threats without human intervention.

  • Malicious content filtering: AI-enabled email tools identify and block phishing emails.

  • Stronger authentication: AI helps improve biometric authentication and fraud detection.

  • Cybersecurity managed with AI: solutions like ProCiber, integrate AI agents to detect, prevent and respond to threats in real time.

Artificial intelligence is transforming cybersecurity, providing more effective tools to detect and prevent attacks. However, it has also given rise to more sophisticated threats, forcing companies to strengthen their protection measures.

How can you protect your company from cyberattacks with AI?

  • Empowering your team to recognize AI-driven threats.

  • Implementing multi-layered cybersecurity solutions that combine AI with human oversight.

  • Adopting advanced security solutions such as ProCiberour managed cybersecurity solution that incorporates AI for proactive detection and response against cyberattacks.
