AI
Since cyber criminals use AI we are going to have to use it too to protect our websites. AI can detect potential security threats and anticipate future attacks and how to defend against them. AI can see things that we could never see. We can use applications like Sentinel One, crowd strike, darktrace, etc. also AI can be used to protect things other than your website. Such as our accounts, passwords, and such.
How Criminals use AI
Cybercriminals can use AI to target human weaknesses and create personalized scams that are way more effective. This allows for people to easily get scammed. We can use AI to prevent this. Most apps we use to check for phishing scams and get rid of them. Like Gmail, if they detect suspicious emails they put them in a spam box. But this is not enough we can use other software to further protect this. We can use AI-powered software like Agari, Phish Titan, Abnormal, etc.
The Affect of Website Security Trends
Website security Trends make it difficult for users, businesses, and cybersecurity industries because they are always something new popping up. There are new attacks, tactics, and strategies being created by cybercriminals. If your website is not up to date or doesn’t have good security it can affect your business. Your customer’s information could be taken, loss of revenue, and if you get hacked it can be really expensive. This affects customer base, customer reputation, profit, etc.
