What might cybersecurity look like in the cognitive era? IBM recently conducted a survey of more than 700 security professionals, leaders and practitioners from 35 countries to get a sense of the toughest challenges they are facing, how these challenges are being confronted and whether cognitive security solutions are being considered as a potential and powerful new tool.

For insights and analysis from this survey, read “Cybersecurity in the Cognitive Era: Priming Your Digital Immune System.” Topics examined in the study include:

  • Security challenges, shortcomings and what security leaders are doing about them
  • Views on cognitive security solutions, including how they might help, readiness to implement and what might be holding them back
  • What those that are ready to implement cognitive-enabled security today are thinking and doing

In many industries, the risks associated with AI-generated attacks are still present and concerning, especially with the global average of data breach costs increasing by 10% from last year.However, according to the most recent Cloud Threat Landscape Report released by IBM’s X-Force team, the near-term threat of an AI-generated attack targeting cloud computing…

Testing the limits of generative AI: How red teaming exposes vulnerabilities in AI models

4 min read - With generative artificial intelligence (gen AI) on the frontlines of information security, red teams play an essential role in identifying vulnerabilities that others can overlook.With the average cost of a data breach reaching an all-time high of $4.88 million in 2024, businesses need to know exactly where their vulnerabilities lie. Given the remarkable pace at which they’re adopting gen AI, there’s a good chance that some of those vulnerabilities lie in AI models themselves — or the data used to…
