The AI Assistant will help customers make informed decisions, augment their tool capabilities, and automate complex tasks.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo be an AI-first company, you must be a data-first company. With our extensive native telemetry, Cisco is uniquely positioned to deliver cybersecurity solutions that allow businesses to confidently operate at machine scale, augmenting what humans can do alone,\u201d said Jeetu Patel, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Security and Collaboration at Cisco. \u201c\u2026A monumental step forward. This advancement will help tip the scales in favor of defenders, empowering customers with AI built pervasively throughout the Cisco Security Cloud.\u201d<\/p>\n
As cyber-attacks continue to evolve, organizations\u2019 defenses must, too. Ransomware and extortion attacks continue to persist at a steady pace, making up 20 percent of incident response engagements this year, according to the Cisco Talos 2023 Year in Review Report. Cisco also reports an increase in sophisticated attacks on networking devices this past year, particularly by state-sponsored actors. The increased speed and sophistication of malicious actors requires the adoption of machine-scale defenses.<\/p>\n
Cisco claims its AI Assistant for Security is trained on one of the largest security-focused data sets in the world, which analyzes more than 550 billion security events each day across web, email, endpoints, networks, and applications. It can understand event triage, impact and scope, root cause analysis, and policy design. With this data, the AI Assistant aims to close the gap between cybersecurity intent and outcomes.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe ability for AI to reshape our daily lives and professional landscapes is immense. As a longstanding Cisco partner, we\u2019re excited about the new Cisco AI Assistant for Security and how this will empower our customers with AI-driven efficiencies,\u201d said Graham Robinson, Chief Technology Officer, Data#3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
