In the ever-changing landscape of cyber threats, the incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into cybersecurity has become a crucial area of focus. By leveraging AI, we can greatly improve our ability to detect, respond to, and mitigate these threats. This research paper thoroughly analyzes the current state of AI applications in cybersecurity, assessing their strengths, weaknesses, and potential impact on the ever-changing threat landscape. The study utilizes a comprehensive approach, including an extensive literature review, examination of case studies, interviews with cybersecurity experts, and analysis of real-world incidents. Automation is crucial for individuals to effectively handle the intricate operations and vast amount of information required to ensure the security of cyberspace. However, building technology and software with traditional fixed implementations can be quite challenging when it comes to effectively protecting against security threats. This condition can be effectively addressed using the principles and techniques of computer science and artificial intelligence. This paper offers a brief summary of AI applications in different cybersecurity areas using artificial technologies and assesses the potential for improving cybersecurity capabilities by strengthening the defense mechanism. It is evident that there are already valuable applications in the field of cybersecurity based on the review of current artificial intelligence software. First and foremost, they are utilized to safeguard the periphery and various other cybersecurity domains using neural networks. However, it was evident that specific cybersecurity issues could be addressed more effectively by implementing artificial intelligence methods. When it comes to strategic decision making, having all the necessary information is crucial. One of the ongoing challenges in the field of cybersecurity is finding effective ways to provide logical decision assistance.
