Advantage of the advanced functionality

 “If businesses want to better protect themselves, they need to take advantage of the advanced functionality offered in modern tools, the same technology available to attackers and fully empower their security personnel,” Hoffman told Dice. “Key steps would be to embrace automation to reduce false positives and employee fatigue and to focus on incident response and containment for the most critical functions and data for your organization.”

White Hat’s Cody Beers also agrees that organizations that value those who can implement machine learning and A.I. technologies into computer engineering definition can help overcome some of the issues that SecOps teams are facing.

“Using A.I. automation and machine learning can be extremely useful for detecting true threats, and there are also products available today that deliver human-verified results directly to the client,” Beers said. “These types of tools can be integral to ensuring an expedited response to cyber-attacks, as well as reducing the time-to-fix windows for discovered vulnerabilities.”
