Organizations across the world face a range of cyber security threats, making keeping up with emerging or potential threats a fundamental challenge. To help protect businesses against these risks, Recorded Future recently launched an AI-powered threat intelligence tool that leverages the OpenAI GPT model to automatically process and generate real-time threat assessments.
The new tool uses deep learning to rapidly understand and process large volumes of data from the open web, dark web, and 40,000 analyst notes to create immediately usable threat reports. In areas like breach detection and response, GPT-based AI systems have the potential to supercharge the human analyst’s decision making process, as the quicker an analyst can pinpoint genuine threats, the faster the resolution can be achieved.
Recorded Future’s CEO, Christopher Ahlberg, has noted the potential of GPT in the security sector. He stated that “Analysts spend 80% of their time doing things like collection, aggregation, and processing, and only 20% doing actual analysis. Imagine if 80% of their time was freed up to actually spend on analysis, reporting, and taking action to reduce risk and secure the organization?” By providing enhanced context around isolated threat signals with GPT, an analyst can more quickly assess whether a breach is present and how to effectively respond.
Recorded Future is one of many vendors leveraging GPT-based solutions to enhance security operations. Microsoft released Security Copilot in May, an AI-driven analysis tool used to process SIEM tool alerts, and cloud security vendor Orca Security released a GPT3-based integration for its platform in January. By automating certain manual processes within the security stack, GPT solutions can now allow enterprises to concentrate on the tasks that they do better than AI – deeper analysis – while saving valuable time.
With the rise of AI-augmented security operations, understanding how to make the most of GPT tools is critical. At the Join top executives in San Francisco on July 11-12 conference, leaders will have the opportunity to learn how best to integrate and optimize investments in AI for successful operations.
In addition to Recorded Future, Microsoft, and Orca Security, the person mentioned in the article is Chris Ahlberg, the CEO of Recorded Future, a cyber intelligence provider. Chris Ahlberg has a history of working with emerging tech and AI applications, previously co-founding the Swedish IT security firm, TATAB. He founded Recorded Future in 2009 and has been driving the company’s growth ever since.
With GPT’s rise, organizations can now streamline their security operations and create a balance between security analysts and automated tools. By attending the July conference, executives can increase their understanding of how best to utilize AI threat intelligence systems and ultimately strengthen their organization’s defenses.
