Using AI To Fight Cyberthreats

SparkCognition, working with Carnegie Mellon and IBM's Watson, aims to provide cyber-security researchers with better threat data using predictive models powered by machine learning.

As part of the arrangement, SparkCognition says it plans to train researchers at SEI's CERT Division how to use IBM Watson to record and index vulnerabilities in the Common Weakness Enumeration ( CWE) list and CERT Secure Coding Rules. By doing so, the researchers will make vulnerability information more accessible and more useful to those focused on protecting critical national infrastructure.

To fight automated attacks, organizations need automated defenses in order to help security professionals separate signal from noise.

"Cybersecurity has evolved to a point that without AI, it's really hard to keep up with all the attacks today," said CEO Amir Husain in a phone interview. "The purpose of this partnership is to combine our collective capabilities, and to be able to predict attacks even when the specific threat is not something that's been seen before."
