Abstract

In an increasingly interconnected world, cloud computing has revolutionized business operations, but it has also opened the door to more complex and advanced cybersecurity threats. Traditional security measures are often insufficient to handle these emerging risks. This paper investigates the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in enhancing cloud security through automated threat detection and autonomous incident response. By examining the integration of AI with existing security frameworks, this study highlights the potential of AI-driven solutions in preemptively identifying vulnerabilities and mitigating attacks in real-time. The paper concludes by discussing the current landscape of AI-powered cloud security and suggesting future directions for research and development in this area.
