Abstract
This IDC Perspective discusses the adoption and potential risks of generative AI (GenAI) in cybersecurity, particularly in government sectors. It highlights the United States' efforts to regulate AI, the potential misuse of GenAI, and the initiatives by various organizations to secure GenAI applications. The document also explores the future use of GenAI in improving security outcomes and provides advice for technology buyers considering the adoption of GenAI tools.
"AI is fascinating and has overtaken the technology world with promises of panacea for cybersecurity," said Aaron Walker, research manager, Government Trust and Resiliency Strategy at IDC. "GenAI can improve protection, but it comes with inherent risks. Regulation is entirely necessary before implementing GenAI onto security controls and operations."
