Abstract: The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into cyber security has revolutionized the way organizations detect, prevent, and respond to cyber threats. AI technologies, including machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing, enable systems to analyze vast amounts of data in real time, identify patterns, and predict potential security breaches with high accuracy. These intelligent systems can autonomously detect anomalies, identify zero-day vulnerabilities, and respond to threats faster than traditional methods. Moreover, AI enhances threat intelligence, automates routine security tasks, and supports adaptive defense mechanisms, reducing the burden on human analysts. However, the use of AI in cybersecurity also introduces new challenges, such as adversarial attacks, data privacy concerns, and the potential misuse of AI by malicious actors. This paper explores the current applications, benefits, limitations, and future prospects of AI in cyber security, highlighting its critical role in building resilient digital infrastructures.
