IBM has introduced new AI features to its threat detection and response services. These tools, part of IBM’s watsonx platform, help find and respond to security threats faster and better.
The new tool, called IBM Consulting Cybersecurity Assistant, helps security teams handle many attacks with limited time and resources. It reduces the need for manual work, letting analysts focus on the most important threats.
The assistant studies past threat activities to understand attack patterns. It suggests actions to take and helps security teams respond quickly to threats, reducing the time attackers can cause harm. It also gets smarter over time by learning from each investigation.
As AI continues to change cybersecurity, tools like these help teams start their work with a clear understanding of the situation, speeding up their response. AI can find unusual behavior, provide detailed threat information, and even analyze malware to prevent future attacks.
These advancements come at a time when many large companies in the U.S. are facing cyber breaches. Reports show a need for better anti-fraud strategies and stronger cybersecurity measures. Using specialized providers for fraud prevention has been effective, cutting payment failures by 32%. Two-factor authentication is also important for reducing payment issues.
