Briefing
|
- Project Blackfin – Helsinki-based cybersecurity company F-Secure announced Project Blackfin, multi-year research program using swarm of artificial intelligence (AI) agents in cybersecurity threat detection and response, at SLUSH technology conference in November 2019
- Swarm Intelligence – Taps AI agents that communicate and share knowledge to each other, similar to how schools of fish or insect colonies behave
- Advantages – Autonomous intelligent bots working together can exceed individual agent’s capabilities, potentially reaching beyond human intelligence and current expectations for artificial intelligence
- Project Status – Deployed first generation of Project Blackfin into company’s Rapid Detection and Response solution for autonomous cyber anomaly recognition and response
- Project Goals – Include developing methods for detecting, tracking, analyzing, gathering and automating cyber threat intelligence and response across multiple endpoints in network
- Development Philosophy – Vice President for Artificial Intelligence Matti Aksela believes AI should not just mimic human intelligence as this can limit its development, and should leverage computers' strengths, including fast and adaptive communication
