As digitization is widely embraced, enterprises face an ever-changing threat, with frequent and highly sophisticated cyberattacks, WIZ said. With these dangers in the evolution of threats, artificial intelligence (AI)-driven solutions have helped increasingly protect enterprises’ networks and data, the company said. Therefore, providing real-time threat detection capabilities to predictive analytics has become an integral part of the security architecture in the contemporary information security landscape, it said. Although AI can significantly boost security, enterprises need insight for consistent cyber protection, it added. Here are five AI security efforts WIZ believes an organization should consider.
1. Implement Multi-Layered Security
A single security is no longer sufficient to keep cyber threats at bay. Advanced security could be built by a multi-layered security approach: firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and AI-driven threat intelligence. AI systems can process large volumes of data in real time to find patterns that indicate a potential security breach even before it happens.

AI can also be applied in every phase of the security function, including endpoint protection, network security, and cloud-based services. This layering of defenses is done to avoid single points of failure; one layer that fails or is breached will not defeat other layers continuing to protect an organization.
2. Use AI-Driven Security Solutions
AI-powered security solutions help provide real-time monitoring, predictive threat analysis, and automated responses. Through machine learning, enterprises can identify deviations in system behavior and flag vulnerabilities well in advance.
While reaping the benefit of AI, adhere to best practices that will negate all the risks associated with the move. A good strategy concerning ChatGPT security will also ensure brand image protection and reduce safety risks. This will result in better customer satisfaction and compliance levels.
3. Conduct Regular Security Audits
AI can automate auditing processes by automatically scanning networks, systems, and databases to identify any form of vulnerability through compliance with security protocols. Automated audits reduce the margin of human error and result in a more consistent, thorough review of security practices.
AI in security audits helps an organization stay updated with ever-evolving threats. It’s always critical to go over and readjust security policies while showing much scope for addressing gaps that the cybercriminal might seek to exploit.
4. Monitor AI Systems for Bias and Security Flaws
Biases in AI algorithms create security vulnerabilities, leading to misidentification or missed threats. Regularly monitoring the AI systems for bias ensures they function as intended without disproportionately targeting certain behaviors or missing critical threats.
Like any other software, AI models are susceptible to attack. Threats such as adversarial attacks, where hackers manipulate input data to fool the AI, will compromise your security. Sound monitoring helps identify these issues early, inspiring the best corrective measures.
5. Educate and Train Staff on AI Security Protocols
No AI system can ever be utilized effectively without the proper involvement of human administration. Training employees on how to interface with a system enabled with AI and following best practices ensures that they will be fully capable of using such tools securely.
It also allows the staff to be aware of some security threats with AI, such as deepfakes or phishing attacks using AI. Awareness and further education through organizations can provide a culture of security that will support getting the most value from AI while reducing potential vulnerabilities to a minimum.

Artificial intelligence has revolutionized businesses to become more efficient. With that come the security issues that must be addressed to ensure maximum gains are experienced. Monitoring the system and making your staff understand generally accepted AI security protocols will help your organization stay safe.
DOLLAR CHALLENGE: BRICS countries’ growing share of global GDP threatens the US dollar’s dominance, which some member states seek to displace for world trade US president-elect Donald Trump on Saturday threatened 100 percent tariffs against a bloc of nine nations if they act to undermine the US dollar. His threat was directed at countries in the so-called BRICS alliance, which consists of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates. Turkey, Azerbaijan and Malaysia have applied to become members and several other countries have expressed interest in joining. While the US dollar is by far the most-used currency in global business and has survived past challenges to its preeminence, members of the alliance and other developing nations say they are fed
LIMITED MEASURES: The proposed restrictions on Chinese chip exports are weaker than previously considered, following lobbying by major US firms, sources said US President Joe Biden’s administration is weighing additional curbs on sales of semiconductor equipment and artificial intelligence (AI) memory chips to China that would escalate the US crackdown on Beijing’s tech ambitions, but stop short of some stricter measures previously considered, said sources familiar with the matter. The restrictions could be unveiled as soon as next week, said the sources, who emphasized that the timing and contours of the rules have changed several times, and that nothing is final until they are published. The measures follow months of deliberations by US officials, negotiations with allies in Japan and the Netherlands, and
Qualcomm Inc’s interest in pursuing an acquisition of Intel Corp has cooled, people familiar with the matter said, upending what would have likely been one of the largest technology deals of all time. The complexities associated with acquiring all of Intel has made a deal less attractive to Qualcomm, said some of the people, asking not to be identified discussing confidential matters. It is always possible Qualcomm looks at pieces of Intel instead or rekindles its interest later, they added. Representatives for Qualcomm and Intel declined to comment. Qualcomm made a preliminary approach to Intel on a possible takeover, Bloomberg News and other media
Foxconn Technology Group (富士康科技集團) yesterday said it expects any impact of new tariffs from US president-elect Donald Trump to hit the company less than its rivals, citing its global manufacturing footprint. Young Liu (劉揚偉), chairman of the contract manufacturer and key Apple Inc supplier, told reporters after a forum in Taipei that it saw the primary impact of any fresh tariffs falling on its clients because its business model is based on contract manufacturing. “Clients may decide to shift production locations, but looking at Foxconn’s global footprint, we are ahead. As a result, the impact on us is likely smaller compared to
