Abstract

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies has ushered in a new era in cybersecurity, offering innovative solutions to combat an increasingly complex threat landscape. This research paper presents a comprehensive review of AI applications in cybersecurity, exploring various techniques, methodologies, and real-world implementations. We examine key AI technologies, including machine learning, natural language processing, and deep learning, and their effectiveness in threat detection, incident response, and vulnerability management. The paper categorizes AI applications into areas such as intrusion detection systems (IDS), malware detection, phishing prevention, and behavioral analytics, highlighting case studies that demonstrate successful implementations across different sectors. Furthermore, we address the challenges and limitations of integrating AI into cybersecurity frameworks, including concerns related to data privacy, algorithmic bias, and the need for interpretability in AI models. By synthesizing findings from current literature and industry practices, this review underscores the transformative potential of AI in enhancing cybersecurity defenses while emphasizing the importance of ethical considerations and ongoing research to optimize AI-driven security solutions. Ultimately, the paper serves as a valuable resource for practitioners, researchers, and policymakers seeking to understand the role of AI in shaping the future of cybersecurity.
