AI & Cybersecurity: The Future of Digital Resilience

In this brand-new podcast episode, host Henrike Tönnes talks with Dr. Mohamad Sbeiti and Samet Gökbayrak about leveraging AI in cybersecurity. The founders of the Bochum-based startup ENTRYZERO share how an AI-powered exposure management helps companies detect threats early and minimize risks - Cube 5 | Creating Security.

Summary

This was the focus of our discussion on “Nachgehackt – the IT Security Podcast”, where we explored the impact of AI on cybersecurity, particularly in the context of exposure management. Here are the key takeaways:

AI can detect a company’s shadow IT and provide a comprehensive overview of external IT systems – all without customer input.
AI can effectively prioritize vulnerabilities, as established scoring metrics like the CVSS score are insufficient to present a realistic threat landscape and associated risks.
AI can identify and categorize services and products, systematically uncovering misconfigurations and leaks, among other issues.
