Another technology executive at a leading financial services firm told me that their organization has incorporated AI into a number of their existing platforms to maintain a competitive advantage in their industry. AI has been rolled out into systems including their trading technologies, data analytics, development tooling, security technologies (across identity to log analytics), and even security training.
A Fortune 500 CISO remarked that AI is being used to analyze legacy datasets in new and innovative ways. They shared the following scenario, “Imagine you have several years’ worth of risk assessments, penetration tests, and internal audit reports, for example, and you manually have been trying to analyze this information to show trends in your security program. Previously, we would have likely hired a consulting company to help us start over with a new assessment or analyze the data to create the trend. We can now perform these assessments, saving our companies’ human labor and significant dollars.”
A large healthcare system CISO told me that they are currently evaluating clinical administrative support in the form of intelligent notation and charting, noting that there’s also some serious discussion internally about possible AI use with clinical decision support. “We’re evaluating how we can leverage AI to monitor supplementation in the policing and patient safety areas,” they said. “The latter primarily identifies fall risk, predicts patient issues, etc. In the data analytics and information security space, everything’s AI at this point.” The executive mentioned that the organization now has AI integrated into EDR, device visibility, and patient trend analytics.
