Problems of using artificial intelligence in countering cybercrime

The article is devoted to the study of the problems of using artificial intelligence in countering cybercrime. Artificial intelligence is also used to commit cybercrimes, for example, in cases of attacks on vulnerable information systems. Artificial intelligence clearly needs to be used in countering cybercrime and ensuring cybersecurity. Machine learning is already being actively used to predict new threats and malware based on existing patterns. Today, machine learning methods are used to monitor system and human activity in order to identify potential malicious deviations, predict malicious applications and malicious sites. All these possibilities should form the basis for the development of existing legislation and means of countering cybercrime. The legislator needs to take into account the possible use of AI, in particular when improving a number of crimes in the field of computer information, fraud, etc. It is necessary to strengthen the requirements for the use of AI technologies when processing large amounts of data in terms of the possibility of ensuring cybersecurity. The author highlights the main trends in the field of artificial intelligence and cybersecurity technologies in the context of the COVID-19 coronavirus infection pandemic.
