ENSURING INFORMATION SECURITY BASED ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TECHNOLOGIES

The article examines the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies for ensuring information security and develops a dual-layer approach that combines AI-enabled cyber defence with security controls for AI systems themselves. The study is motivated by the growing volume, speed and complexity of cyber events, which increasingly exceed the capacity of purely manual monitoring and rule-based detection. A qualitative integrative-review and policy-analysis methodology is applied. The analysis identifies five high-value functions of AI in information security: behavioral anomaly detection, intelligent threat and malware classification, phishing and fraud detection, security-event prioritization, and adaptive incident response. The findings indicate that AI should augment, rather than replace, security professionals and deterministic controls. Recommendations are provided for critical information infrastructure, public information systems, financial organizations and other institutions in Uzbekistan.
