Machine learning can be used to generate new strains of malware that are harder to detect. An attacker could use machine learning to monitor the behavior of the target network and create malware that resemble “normal” traffic. AI can also be used in other ways to identify security issues. The ability to use AI to defend against novel malware is essential to defenders. This is balanced against the ability for attackers to create novel malware using AI and the larger attack surface created by AI applications. AI software adds new types of vulnerabilities.
