Generally Artificial Intelligence is
the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks normally
requiring human intelligence such as visual perception, speech recognition,
decision making and translation between languages.
Artificial Intelligence is nothing
more than a basis for science fiction movies, the threat of bots is ever
present. Typically, these clever little programs are deployed by hackers to
complete a job as quickly as possible.
To say simply, the bots are more
efficient little blighters designed to scan a system and to find out sensitive
information, weak points in newly released software patches or previously
unknown points of access that can be exploited. At that point of time the hackers
can do whatever runs in their mind.
It can be a challenge to defend one’s
reputed organization using bots given their efficiency and ability to complete
a singular task very, very well. If you want to to avoid such an incident where
a bot has identified a compromise is to deploy your own – think of it as self-awareness.
If you know the weakest point of link, then it’s possible to resolve yourself.
Don’t relax just yet though. While
bots are very good at one thing it does mean that they are vey bad at anything
else. Simply they are just a tool in the arsenal of a hacker. They are used in
the initial stages of an attack to locate the simplest method of access. It’s
mean you can simply locate many articles specifying that bots have been used in
a system breach with absolute certainty, but this doesn’t mean that should be
taken lightly as defending against them can place you lower down the list of
potential targets.
The main benefits of
employing your own bots is to scan the systems integrity is that they can be
used repeatedly and usually at a low cost. They cannot be relied upon to protect
you from any attacks for example like bots are close to useless against DDOS attacks,
but they are values assets when we use them correctly.
