Looking back at 2023, we can see that the topic of AI has had a significant impact on IT security. This will be no different next year: the possible applications of AI will far exceed the previous functions and small implementations.
OpenAI's reported breakthrough in solving mathematical equations is just one example of what the technology can achieve. With this maturity, we will see a proliferation of AI-driven products, from innovative software to AI-generated content. The interaction of cloud and edge computing with GenAI will be transformative next year. The unmatched scalability of cloud computing combined with the real-time delivery of edge computing will enable generative AI models to operate at lightning speed. This symbiotic relationship will drive unprecedented efficiency and innovation in industries such as security, healthcare and finance.
Vulnerabilities in AI tools
This year, cybercriminals will attempt to exploit vulnerabilities in newly launched AI tools - the cat and mouse game continues.

With so many regulations coming into force next year, companies cannot afford to forget GDPR. It is dynamic legislation that requires companies to stay informed and adapt their compliance practices. Data protection authorities in the EU will also be even more vigilant next year - there is no room for error. 2024 will also be a challenging one for IT compliance. New frameworks such as DORA and NIS2 will put pressure on companies to improve their security measures. There
As more countries introduce their own regulations, compliance becomes a confusing task without the right tools.
