Explain how artificial intelligence tools are being used to characterize the existing network and protect it from security threats. For example, with cyberartificial intelligence (AI)security there is the idea of continuous and continuing "adaptive" learning so as the threats mutate "so to speak " so to do the defenses against those mutations. This can be done in real-time and in fact, there is the promise of even proactive preemptive strikes against the mutations. Investigate this further in the research and report back what you find. It is exciting research. Also, there are heuristics that can be developed to guide that adaptive learning to avoid wasted searching and getting to dead ends.
