Remington
Diploma in AI for Ma...The course covers how AI enhances malware identification, prevention, and cybersecurity strategies.
Not necessarily. While a background in cybersecurity or IT is helpful, the course is designed to be accessible for learners with a foundational understanding of computers and interest in AI applications.
The course primarily uses Python due to its popularity and strong libraries for AI and machine learning.
Yes! Through practical exercises, you will learn how to build and test machine learning models for malware detection using real-world datasets.
AI analyzes patterns in files, processes, and behaviors to detect known and unknown malware more efficiently than traditional signature-based methods.
AI detects cybercrime by monitoring network traffic, recognizing anomalies, and identifying suspicious behavior that may indicate criminal activity, such as phishing or ransom ware deployment.
These are software platforms that use AI techniques—like machine learning and neural networks—to detect, analyze, and respond to cyber threats in real time.
