Utilizzo della IA generativa e di MongoDB per affrontare le sfide più importanti della sicurezza informatica

The evolving landscape of cybersecurity presents numerous challenges that require innovative solutions leveraging cutting-edge technologies. One major issue is the increasing sophistication of cyber threats, such as malware, ransomware, and phishing attacks, which are becoming harder to detect and limit. Additionally, the rapid expansion of digital infrastructures has broadened the attack surface, making it more difficult for security teams to monitor and protect every entry and exit point. Another significant problem is the shortage of qualified professionals in cybersecurity, estimated at around 4 million people worldwide. These challenges highlight the need for advanced technologies that can aid in protecting digital resources and data. Generative AI has emerged as a powerful tool to address these cybersecurity issues by utilizing large language models (LLMs) to generate new data or models based on existing datasets. It can provide innovative solutions in various key areas: improved threat detection and response, learning from post-mortem security events, generating synthetic data for deep model training, and automating phishing detection. MongoDB can help by enabling developers to create and implement robust real-time cybersecurity defenses more quickly and at any scale. It operates on the second layer of the AI stack, allowing clients to input their proprietary data into any LLM running on any computing infrastructure to create AI-based security applications. MongoDB Atlas unifies operational, unstructured, and vector data in a single multi-cloud fully managed platform, eliminating the need to copy and synchronize data between different systems. Its document-based architecture also enables developers to easily model relationships between application data and vettor embeddings, facilitating more in-depth and faster analysis and insights on security data. Real-world applications of AI generative technology and MongoDB include intelligence threat assessment by ExTrac and security risk evaluations by VISO TRUST.
