Can AI Hack Security in Software?


AI can be used to detect and exploit vulnerabilities in software, but it cannot “hack” security in software by itself. AI is a tool that can be used by both ethical and unethical actors to identify vulnerabilities and develop exploits, but it still requires a human operator to execute an attack.

AI can be used to automate and accelerate the process of identifying vulnerabilities in software. For example, machine learning algorithms can analyze large amounts of code to identify patterns and anomalies that may indicate a vulnerability. AI can also be used to generate exploits that take advantage of these vulnerabilities, but this still requires a human operator to execute the exploit.

It’s important to note that AI can also be used for defensive purposes in software security. For example, machine learning algorithms can be used to detect and block malicious traffic or identify anomalous behavior that may indicate an … Read the rest
