Digital Smarts - Watson to the Rescue?

You are here

IBM is looking to its supercomputer Watson to fight cybercrime using its deep learning techniques. The company recently announced that 40 organizations have joined the Watson Cyber Security beta program, which is "learning the nuances of security research findings and discovering patterns and evidence of cyberattacks and threats that could otherwise be missed." As more organizations take part in the program, the increased amount of collected security data will further the intelligence of the system, evolving and improving current defense strategies.
