Computer and Information Security

Dynamic risk assessment and management strategies are becoming more and more necessary in the cybersecurity field of companies to control the complexity and ongoing change of cyberthreats. Dynamic risk assessment and management solutions help companies to develop preventative cybersecurity plans, so addressing risks and so reducing expenses. Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) has recently transformed these systems, by increasing capacity in real-time data analysis, allowing predictive threat modeling, and promoting initiative-taking defense mechanisms. By including cutting-edge AI models, including neural networks and LLMs, which enable anomaly detection, dynamic event prediction, and automatic compliance reporting, GenAI enhances conventional frameworks, including NIST and ISO standards. After reviewing the integration of GenAI with conventional cybersecurity models, this work emphasizes its dual influence as a tool for both defense and possible exploitation. By means of a comparative study, we investigate how these dynamic systems, enhanced with GenAI, optimize the security posture and support changing cybersecurity policies.
