How AI Is Being Used to Improve Cybersecurity for Businesses of All Sizes

Cybercrime is on the rise across the United States and globally. Over the past decade, online crimes caused more than $12 billion in damage, a twelve-fold increase compared to 2015. Where companies used to fear physical threats such as bank robberies, they are now guarding against far less visible attacks. As the world's reliance on digital technologies grows, artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to enhance cybersecurity measures for businesses of any size. Related: 10 Benefits of Using AI in Cybersecurity Practices Cybersecurity has changed dramatically over the past decade. Ten years ago, more than one in five cybersecurity incidents involved paper records. This year, the figure has dropped to an almost negligible 2%. Cyber attacks involving paper records have been replaced by phishing incidents, which nearly doubled throughout this time. The growth of ransomware attacks is even more obvious. Virtually unknown in 2015, they now account for nearly one in three cyber attacks in the U.S. At this time, AI plays a dual role in cybersecurity as it is used by both perpetrators of online crimes and those looking to secure data. The World Economic Forum has spoken of an AI arms race. Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) around the world are leveraging technologies like machine learning and deep learning to stay several steps ahead of their adversaries. Thanks to its fundamental capacity to analyze huge amounts of data, AI allows CISOs and their teams to monitor network activity and spot anomalies early. Identifying suspicious behavior or fraudulent activity early becomes not only easier but may be the key to effectively preventing monetary and other damage. At the same time, utilizing AI frees up analysts' time, allowing them to concentrate on more strategic activities. Threat detection and data protection are two cornerstones of effective cybersecurity, and AI can enhance both. Amazon GuardDuty is an AI-based threat detector that uses machine learning (ML) and Amazon Web Services' (AWS') own integrated threat intelligence to protect AWS accounts and associated data. The software detects suspicious activities such as the removal of AI security guardrails and investigates those faster than human analysts could. Users can also automate threat remediation. In addition, Amazon GuardDuty protects against ransomware uploads and scans for the presence of malware, including cryptocurrency-related threats. IBM Watson for Cybersecurity is another heavy hitter in AI-based threat detection. Watson analyses security data from different sources, including security alerts and logs. By combining information gathered in more than one place, Watson can detect threats the non-AI security software may have missed. The company's range of IBM Security® solutions offers more customized tools to meet the cybersecurity needs of today's businesses. Related: How Companies Can Utilize AI and Quantum Technologies to Improve Cybersecurity One of the challenges of using AI in cybersecurity is the speed at which the field is expanding. Research firm Gartner predicts that by 2026, four out of five businesses will have used generative AI-enabled applications. By comparison, just one year ago, only 5% of all enterprises were employing these emerging technologies. Given the rate of acceleration, one of the challenges of cybersecurity professionals is to safeguard these projects. According to IBM, less than a quarter of generative AI projects are secured adequately right now, leaving three-quarters open to malicious attacks. Cybersecurity teams are facing internal and external challenges. Externally, cyber attacks are becoming more sophisticated as the volume and value of data grow. Potential attackers no longer need excessive computing power to develop harmful products. At the same time, teams looking to protect an organization's data are dealing with internal problems like the sheer volume of data and increasingly complex data infrastructures. They also have to balance users' need for access with security concerns. Cyber attacks are not limited to specific verticals. As companies' dependency on data grows, so does the potential of cybercrime. Industrial solutions provider Andritz AG noticed an increase in security breaches in 2020. With nearly 50% of its 27,000-strong workforce relying on remote network access, the company needed to find a solution that protected proprietary information and allowed its teams to continue working. With customers operating power stations and chemical plants among other applications, cybersecurity breaches could quickly become catastrophic. The team implemented an AI-based solution to visualize threats and neutralize them fast, protecting its employees and clients. China-based United Family Healthcare (UFH) turned to AI-based cybersecurity solutions when a combination of compliance regulations, external threats and employee behaviors like password sharing put data at risk. The company needed a solution that streamlined security operations in one central location, allowing a relatively small cybersecurity team to monitor and detect suspicious activities across different locations. Once online, their AI-based system provided an overview of the company's security situation within minutes. The application has also had a positive effect on internal operations, with risks and alarms decreasing since its implementation four years ago. Related: How AI Is Shaping the Cybersecurity Landscape -- Exploring the Advantages and Limitations As the use of generative AI continues to expand throughout all verticals and society as a whole, the need for equally powerful cybersecurity will increase. While it may still be easy to look at cybersecurity as something that may not apply to small businesses, few businesses will be able to overlook cyber threats for much longer. Losing access to an ecommerce website or compromising customer data on social media platforms can threaten a company's future. As cyber threats evolve and expand their reach, AI-based cybersecurity needs to evolve to detect and neutralize them before damage occurs. In the future, we are likely to see AI-based security elements incorporated into widely used applications such as social media content generation, scheduling tools and more. When it comes to cybersecurity, AI has a dual role as an antagonist and a protector. Over the coming years, governments and businesses need to ensure that AI-based protection, detection and resolution outpace the growth of cyber threats and cybercrime.

Getting Started With vCISO: Cynomi

'We really preach that if a client is compliant that does not mean that it's secured and vice versa,' says Royi Barnea, vice president of channel sales at Cynomi. Offering virtual CISO services can help MSPs improve the cybersecurity and compliance postures of customers of any size. That's the message from Royi Barnea, vice president of channel sales at Cynomi, a Tel Aviv, Israel-based provider of vCISO technology, who told an audience of MSPs at this week's XChange 2024 conference in San Antonio that vCISO services are increasingly in demand. XChange is hosted by CRN parent The Channel Company. Cynomi, in a survey last year of 300 U.S.-based MSPs, found that 19 percent were already offering vCISO services, while 86 percent were planning to add such services in the coming year. [Related: The 10 Hottest Cloud Security Startup Companies Of 2024 (So Far)] All this comes as cyberattacks are continuing to increase in volume and intensity, businesses are increasingly concerned about compliance issues, third-party risk assessments are on the rise and customers are increasingly asking about cyber insurance, he said. At the same time, MSPs are dealing with new customer pain points such as the fear that vCISO services could mean a loss of control over their own infrastructure and concerns over whether they have the right experience or enough trained personnel to deliver them, Barnea said. However, he said, this is changing. "I am meeting with many solution providers who are saying today, 'We're not going to want to onboard a new client before we do an assessment to understand what we are getting ourselves into. Is the client committed to the process? Can we provide the services that were committed to the client, understanding where they stand and where they need to reach to have a decent cybersecurity culture?'" he said. Cynomi can easily help MSPs achieve CISO-level cybersecurity for their customers using the company's smart AI capabilities, Barnea said. It starts with asking customers 16 to 19 questions about their IT environment, their data usage, what security frameworks and plans are in place and so on, he said. Based on the information collected, Cynomi will automatically populate and generate relevant assessments including frameworks and domains, Barnea said. "It automatically cross-maps and cross-references between multiple frameworks and multiple controls," he said. "All that is fully automated and presented in what we call the 'spider chart' that basically simplifies everything for you. We will set up the target for your client for every framework, every domain and where they stand today. We'll also talk about reporting, which is very important as well." Cynomi's biggest use case is looking for cybersecurity and compliance gaps, Barnea said. Getting customers ready for cyber insurance is also key, he said. "We really preach that if a client is compliant that does not mean that it's secured and vice versa," he said. Cynomi helps set security targets with a focus on four vectors of attack: data leakage, fraud, ransomware and website defacement, and fully guides MSPs for each of those, Barnea said. Cynomi is 100 percent focused on the channel, he said. "We will never compete with you," he said. "We only work with consultancy firms, VCs and MSPs. Basically, through those platforms, there are multiple use cases and services that you can bundle to your client. Maybe you can do it yourself so the end client has access to the platform and can basically conduct some assessments or host a task. Maybe you want to do it together with them or you want to do it for your clients." Cynomi's licensing is all-inclusive, which is a huge differentiator, Barnea said. "This means you can upload as many users as you want to the platform," he said. "The clients get different privileges and rights. It also means there are over 23 frameworks included without charge. Most of our competitors charge per framework per client. You can serve multiple clients at the same single price as well." Cynomi also makes it easy to prospect new customers by letting MSPs do an assessment free of charge and then send these prospects the report, Barnea said. "You want to talk to the technical guys, great," he said. "We provide all the reports needed to talk the bits and bytes at any level you want. But when you're talking to executives, you can create a plan for them. The executive bottom line is, what's the risk? What does it mean for their business? That's the only thing important for them." For Darrin Piotrowski, CEO of New Orleans-based MSP Courant, the biggest takeaway from Barnea's talk is that the Cynomi technology covers both compliance and security. "I'm a big fan of consolidating our vendors," he said. "I'm tired of having a bunch of vendors that sort of cross over in these two technologies, but who don't completely cross over. And if I can eliminate two vendors by moving to one vendor, that's a big deal for me."

MicroSec Announces the Launch of CyberAssessor for OT/ICS: The World's First AI-Based Cybersecurity Assessment Platform for IEC 62443

SINGAPORE, Sept. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- MicroSec, a global leader in Operational Technology (OT) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) cybersecurity, announces the launch of CyberAssessor for OT/ICS, the world's first AI-based automated cybersecurity assessment platform specifically designed for performing IEC 62443 assessments. This platform automates the assessment process and enhances compliance evaluation accuracy across sites and down to the device level, including third-party equipment, hardware, and software. It provides a comprehensive summary through a "single pane" dashboard and generates an automatic report detailing the organization's risk level, compliance score, and recommendations. After a successful beta trial, MicroSec is now launching CyberAssessor for OT/ICS globally. CyberAssessor for OT/ICS addresses the ISA/IEC 62443 standard, an internationally recognized framework for securing industrial automation and control systems (IACS) and widely adopted across industries such as manufacturing, energy, utilities, and critical infrastructure. The CyberAssessor for OT/ICS helps organizations achieve compliance across multiple sites, individual plants, and at both the infrastructure and device levels by assessing against standards such as IEC 62443 (including parts 2-4, 3-2, 3-3, 4-2), along with other industrial cybersecurity frameworks like ISO 27400, Singapore's TR64, IACS E26/E27, CIS benchmarks, and regional frameworks. For asset owners and plant managers, two main challenges arise when conducting a cyber risk assessment. The first is how to quickly and accurately assess cyber risks that can scale from individual ICS equipment, regardless of make or model, to the entire site level. The second challenge is how to quantify and resolve areas of non-compliance, and then apply consistent standards across multiple sites and devices. MicroSec's CyberAssessor for OT/ICS addresses these challenges by offering a non-invasive approach that requires minimal to no integration, simplifying the process of evaluating and complying with IEC 62443. It automatically assesses cyber risks across sites or individual equipment, reducing the need for manual input, minimizing human error, and enhancing visibility by identifying both known and unknown systems and devices through zone mapping. CyberAssessor conducts cyber risk assessments using automated digital questionnaires, instant network captures, and real-time network traffic visibility. These assessments can be performed at both the site and device levels, from Level 0 to Level 5 of the Purdue Model, as well as across multiple sites. Upon completion of an assessment, asset owners and plant managers receive a compliance score for IEC 62443, which establishes a baseline and is benchmarked against similar organizations in their industry. All identified areas of non-compliance, along with cyber risks, threats, and vulnerabilities, are tracked via compliance dashboards across zones, segments, and multi-sites. Management also receives a detailed report with the compliance score, risks, and recommendations for achieving compliance. These recommendations are automatically generated based on the specific areas of non-compliance and the end user's security level targets. Since the process is automated, the entire assessment, scoring, and reporting can be completed in hours, rather than the days or weeks typically required by traditional assessments. Additionally, to ensure business continuity and incident response planning, MicroSec's CyberAssessor overcomes knowledge loss from staff turnover, outdated device information, and limited cybersecurity expertise. It does this by storing information, maintaining assessment histories, and tracking performance, all of which are managed within the platform. Dr. Vishram Mishra, CEO of MicroSec, commented on this remarkable achievement: "This innovative solution marks a significant milestone in our mission to safeguard critical infrastructure and industrial systems. By offering a comprehensive and automated approach to compliance with this essential standard, we are empowering organizations to strengthen their security posture and defend against the evolving cyber threats targeting OT and IoT environments. Our commitment to excellence in cybersecurity continues to distinguish us as a global leader in the field." CyberAssessor is part of the broader MicroSec MicroIDS platform, which enables continuous assessment and monitoring of new threats and vulnerabilities. When a threat or vulnerability is detected, it is isolated, triggering an immediate response that can be automated or customized based on user preferences. MicroIDS is the only platform today that combines cyber risk assessments with real-time threat and vulnerability detection, isolation, and response for OT/ICS environments, whether for multi-site operations or individual equipment. CyberAssessor for OT/ICS marks a significant advancement in industrial cybersecurity for critical infrastructure, utilities, energy, and manufacturing. It leverages the company's deep expertise in asset detection, threat management, standards compliance, and AI. The platform bridges the gap between regulatory compliance and threat detection and response, while also safeguarding against future threats. MicroSec is actively collaborating with global and regional partners, including certification bodies, consultants, and solution providers, to build a strategic OT cybersecurity ecosystem. The company aims to drive innovation, achieve standardization, and ensure compliance across the industry.

5 Ways To Use Automation For Enhanced Cybersecurity

At a time when cyberattacks of all kinds are expanding in volume and sophistication, business security teams need a toolkit that enables them to stay ahead of malicious actors. It's harder than ever to defend business systems when data is sprawling and attack surfaces are expanding. Ever-changing compliance requirements are also ratcheting up the pressure. Meanwhile, the rapid adoption of AI is opening up new vulnerabilities from unexpected directions. Public-use AI platforms like ChatGPT have been known to leak sensitive information, while threat actors are using AI to ramp up their own attacks. It's little wonder that a recent survey by DarkTrace found that 60% of security leaders think their organizations are ill-prepared for AI-powered threats. Automation is a critical pillar for any effective cybersecurity toolkit, bringing new capabilities that contribute to improved protection, with faster response times and fewer errors than human teams are capable of on their own. The DarkTrace report notes that while just 15% of security stakeholders think that traditional methods can cope with AI-powered threats, they have far greater faith in AI-powered and automated solutions. It's time to find smart ways to use automation for good, before malicious actors use it against you. Continuous monitoring for security controls Your security policies and controls are all that stand between your extensive attack surface and the malicious actors eager to break through. They ensure that every element is configured correctly, your defenses are working as they should be, and that you're meeting all the requirements of your compliance frameworks. Frameworks like GDPR, PCI DSS, and HIPAA provide structured guidelines and best practices for securing data and managing risks, so compliance is an important step towards ensuring business continuity and preventing damaging data breaches. For example, GDPR mandates stringent data protection measures; HIPAA requires data confidentiality, integrity, and availability; and PCI DSS sets standards for securing payment card information. Cyber GRC platform Cypago offers an automated continuous monitoring solution that verifies that all these protections are active and in position, all the time. It automatically collects data from across your ecosystem, checks it against your security programs and compliance frameworks, and provides early alerts about anomalies or vulnerabilities. Once you've used it to ensure all your controls align with the compliance frameworks most relevant to your company, the platform monitors every aspect of your security posture for changes and gaps, including data security, identity access, and the software development lifecycle. Precise filtering to block phishing attempts As security controls become more sophisticated, humans remain the weakest link. Phishing is an increasing threat, with attackers using GenAI to design more convincing scams. In a recent study, 81% of security professionals cited it as their top security risk, indicating that limiting outsider threats like phishing and malware is their highest-priority cybersecurity initiative. This makes email security crucial. Alongside ongoing employee education, organizations should implement an automated solution that uses natural language processing (NLP) to spot suspicious emails and attempted account takeovers. Some services even use learning loops to minimize false positives over time. Next-gen phishing protection also automatically blocks unauthorized access, and quarantines suspected phishing emails so they can be assessed with care. Proactive defense against website impersonation scams Bad actors are using AI to create sophisticated fake versions of your company's website, to scam your customers into revealing personal information or paying for counterfeit goods. Fairly or not, customers will blame your company for the scam. This can damage brand reputation and customer loyalty, and cause people to wonder if your actual marketing presence is genuine. AI-based tools like Memcyco use automation to proactively detect the creation of a fake website in real time. It sends an alert to your company, as well as a popup warning to customers who inadvertently visit the fake site. If a customer does enter their details into the fake site, you'll get an instant notification, so you can address the issue as soon as possible. The solution also provides complete information about the attack, including details like contextualized forensics to identify the attacker and the impact on individual victims. This empowers you to limit the fallout and duration of any website scam, and prevent serious harm from website impersonation attacks on both your company and your customers. Uncovering shadow IT and shadow AI Shadow IT is a serious issue. It refers to employees using SaaS tools without your knowledge, leaving you unaware of which platforms have access to your systems and data. The issue is now spreading to encompass shadow AI, where employees use publicly-available GenAI tools without organizational approval or oversight. These platforms often have significant security weaknesses. Many retain user data for model training purposes, raising the risk of inadvertent data leakage, theft of intellectual property, or vulnerabilities that threat actors can use to penetrate your systems. The best way to combat these threats is through automation. AI-powered solutions can constantly scan employee tech use to detect unauthorized tools and map every instance of shadow technology. Newer solutions include shadow AI mapping alongside existing shadow IT detection capabilities. Cross-vector data analysis Threats are evolving at a rapid rate, so your defenses can't remain static. You need to continuously and proactively scan your ecosystem, so you know what could arrive and can adapt your strategies, investigation, and response times through security analysis. It's best done using unsupervised ML algorithms that can track traffic patterns to set a baseline for normal, and flag deviations that indicate true anomalies. You need to include every possible vector, because there's no way to know where the next threat will arise or what shape it will take. Extended detection and response (XDR) solutions like Trend Micro's Trend Vision One can automatically collect and correlate data across multiple security layers, including email, IoT devices, servers, cloud workloads, and networks. The platform can spot anomalous behavior, verify the presence of a threat, and correlate low-confidence events to reveal complex, multi-layered attacks. Automated response capabilities take immediate action to mitigate an attempted attack, like isolating networks or revoking access, so there's no risk of an attack continuing unchecked for hours. Automation is a vital weapon in the cybersecurity war Today's organizations face more threats than ever before - in terms of volume, vectors, and sophistication. Cybersecurity teams need all the help they can get to keep ahead of the whirlwind of attacks and threats. Automation is a key element in improving existing security solutions. New, advanced applications can level the playing field against malicious actors and restore confidence in your organization's security.
