Rethinking Cybersecurity
How computer scientists are building smarter defenses against evolving threats
Cyberattacks are evolving faster than ever—AI-powered phishing scams, deepfake impersonations, and ransomware rings that operate like corporations.
But here’s the good news: computer scientists are fighting back with tools just as advanced as the threats.
Smarter Defenses, Not Just Bigger Walls
Traditionally, cybersecurity has been about building higher barriers: firewalls, intrusion detection, two-factor authentication. Today’s researchers are taking a different approach—using AI, machine learning, and behavioral modeling to predict attacks before they happen.
