Bottom line: The pilot aims to improve threat detection and response in critical infrastructure and SLTT governments using AI-powered tools.
What's happening: CIS and OpenAI collaborated on the pilot, which utilizes OpenAI's AI technology to analyze and identify potential threats in critical infrastructure and SLTT governments. The pilot focuses on improving threat detection and response times in the energy sector, with initial testing in the United States, specifically in Arizona, Colorado, and Utah.
What to do: Security leaders should evaluate the pilot's potential to integrate AI-powered tools into their own threat detection and response processes, prioritizing critical infrastructure and SLTT governments. They should also consider participating in future pilot testing to leverage the benefits of AI-powered cyber defense.
