Abstract: We'll present NVIDIA Morpheus, an open application framework that enables cybersecurity developers to build stronger, faster AI-based cybersecurity solutions and some example use cases. Traditional cybersecurity solutions can no longer adequately defend against the most sophisticated threats because they cannot scale to address the increasing size of the problem. Human analysts alone cannot keep pace with increases in speed and capacity, but applying AI techniques can extend the capabilities of cybersecurity teams to enable faster identification and response to cyberattacks. With the latest developments in Morpheus, developers can take advantage of AI and data science tools, frameworks, pre-trained models, and infrastructure optimization software to build solutions that tackle cybersecurity challenges innovatively.
