APPLICATION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN FIGHTING AGAINST CYBER CRIMES: A REVIEW

Cybercrimes have become a daily menace with the unprecedented progress made in the Information Technology (IT). Cyber infrastructures are exposed to serious Cybercrimes and attacksevery day. Physical devicesand human intervention have not been fully successful in monitoring and protection of these infrastructures; hence, there comes a need of highly effectivedefense systems that need to be flexible, adaptable and robust, which must be able to defend the IT infrastructure against innumerable and highly potential cyberattacks. Umpteen techniques of artificial intelligence have been playing a key role in cybercrime detection and prevention. This study aims at putting forth the progress made in Artificial Intelligence in fighting against the numerous cybercrimes and shows the effectiveness of various AI techniques in detecting and preventing cyberattacks, as well as to give the scope for future work.
