Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing cybersecurity, offering unprecedented capabilities to tackle previously unmanageable threats, an industry insider said on the sidelines of the 2024 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit.
Qi Xiangdong, chairman of Chinese cybersecurity company Qi-Anxin, highlighted the transformative impact of AI-driven technology on the industry. A single AI-powered robot now performs the equivalent work of 60 top-tier cybersecurity analysts, allowing teams to address complex security incidents with far greater efficiency, according to Qi. This advance represents a significant leap in global efforts to ensure digital security, he added.
China's tremendous progress in internet technology and cybersecurity has drawn attention worldwide, with global participants at the conference emphasizing the importance of collaboration and shared innovation to tackle emerging challenges in the digital age, Qi noted.
