Abstract

Cloud computing has revolutionized the way organizations store, process, and manage data, offering flexibility and scalability. However, the rise in cyber threats poses significant challenges to maintaining robust cloud security. This chapter delves into the pivotal role that Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) play in enhancing cloud security. By harnessing the capabilities of AI and ML, organizations can proactively detect, mitigate, and respond to evolving cyber threats, ultimately fortifying their cloud infrastructure.AI-driven techniques empower security systems to recognize patterns, anomalies, and potential threats within vast datasets. ML algorithms can learn from historical attack data, enabling the prediction of future threats and the development of more effective defense mechanisms. Moreover, AI-enhanced authentication and access control mechanisms bolster identity management, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and data breaches.
