2. Escalation of Cyber Crime
Loss of function is the new weapon
With many intelligent devices independently processing, data and control must be secured at every point
Protect new vulnerabilities
Detect intruders fast
Recover quickly from an attack
280% increase in attacks on IoT devices1
146 days median time an attacker stays within a network without detection2
~46 days recover time from an attack3
~$20K daily cost of an attack3

3. Coding Makes a Machine Intelligent
Subsets of AI can be applied to solving human problems in different ways
Artificial intelligence (AI) mimics human behavior.
Deep learning (DL)
A subset of ML which uses deep artificial neural networks
Chatbots, media delivery
Deep learning
Machine learning (ML)
Algorithms that allow computers to learn from examples
Machine learning
Autonomous Driving
Artificial intelligence
Airframe Production

4. Hackers Use Artificial Intelligence Coding
Bypassing CAPTCHA
Improving Phishing
Evasive Malware
A reported 76% of organizations fell victim to phishing attacks in 2017.
AI identifies valuable targets and quickly develop a profile of that target based on what they have tweeted in the past. Using this approach targets click on malicious links 30% of the time (compared to the 5-15% success rate of other automated approaches).
AI performs checks to identify hardware configurations and if a human is operating the machine
DeepLocker’s AI is trained to ensure that its payload only executes when it reaches a specific target, relying on three layers of concealment to prevent security tools from identifying the threat.
Using AI techniques, researchers at Columbia were able to get by Google reCAPTCHA 98% of the time.
