DEFENDING THE CLOUD: HOW AI AND ML ARE REVOLUTIONIZING CYBERSECURITY

Abstract

This study explores how machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) might strengthen cybersecurity defenses in cloud computing environments. The sophistication and reach of cyber threats are growing, making traditional security methods inadequate. However, proactive threat detection, quick response times, and flexible defenses are made possible by AI and ML, which present a viable answer. Through the examination of large datasets, these technologies are able to identify irregularities and trends that may point to future attacks, allowing for the mitigation of risks in advance. This research highlights how AI and ML are changing cybersecurity techniques and how they can help make cloud-based security infrastructures more resilient and effective. It also covers how AI and ML may improve cloud security by giving businesses the ability to proactively identify, counter, and respond to new and emerging cyberthreats. This allows them to take advantage of cloud computing's flexibility and scalability while maintaining strong security protocols.
