What cybersecurity protects
Reduce theft, exposure, alteration or destruction of sensitive information.
Keep systems and services available during incidents or attacks.
Control who can access systems and what they are permitted to do.
Prepare people, processes and technology to recover quickly.
The CIA triad
Confidentiality means information is available only to authorised users. Integrity means systems and data remain accurate and protected from improper change. Availability means authorised users can access systems when needed.
Why AI changes cybersecurity
AI can assist with alert analysis, investigation and automation, but AI systems also introduce new risks around data, permissions, models, third-party tools and autonomous actions.
