COGNIZANT & IBM
with Gen AI-based policies and query generation to enable automation .
“ Beyond the initial use cases for assisting security teams in reducing toil and acting faster , we see Gen AI playing a significant role in organisations evolving to be more proactive . Gen AI will improve security by finding elusive threats sooner , automating dynamic workflows without human involvement and eliminating high-volume , low-risk incidents so that the security teams can focus on alerts that matter the most .
“ Like with any new technology , it ’ s paramount that we recognise the new security risks Gen AI brings and safeguard its usage ,” he adds . “ Attackers will target underlying datasets for training and tuning models , model vulnerabilities and supply chain dependencies , workloads and applications .”
Collaboration between tech teams While we understand the potential impacts of Gen AI on businesses and the threats imposed on them , the partnership of technology providers like IBM and Cognizant ensures the responsible use of Gen AI to enable global enterprises to harness the power of Gen AI to drive security outcomes .
From Mr . Gupta ’ s perspective , the investments made by IBM prove fundamentally beneficial to Cognizant as it develops its solutions further .
Mr . Gupta highlights some of IBM ’ s critical developments that drive corporate security leadership . “ IBM has added several innovations to expand its security product portfolio ,” he says . “ One was attack-surface management ; another was endpoint detection and response , and open threat management platform to automate investigation and response to threats .
“ My next approach is to take our SOC , which was SOC 1.0 built on QRadar , and develop it to SOC 2.0 , giving rounded and robust XDR services . Because the product has gone from an on-prem solution to a cloud-native solution and is now a one-stop platform , it covers not only the SIEM but also attack surface management , EDR and SOAR services .”
Dr . Muppidi adds : “ Cognizant not only deployed IBM products
