Traditional cybersecurity methods include creating barriers around your infrastructure to protect it from intruders. However, as enterprises continue to digitally transform, they’re faced with a proliferation of devices, more sophisticated cybersecurity attacks, and an incredibly vast network of data to protect—which means new cybersecurity methodologies must be explored. An alternative approach is to address cybersecurity as a data science problem: Aim to better understand all the users and activities across your network so that you can identify which transactions are typical and which are potentially nefarious.

The NVIDIA Morpheus AI framework lets cybersecurity developers and practitioners harness the power of GPU computing to implement cybersecurity solutions that perform on a scale never before possible. With Morpheus, cybersecurity developers can create optimized AI pipelines for filtering, processing, and classifying large volumes of real-time data. Bringing a new level of information security to data centers, Morpheus enables dynamic protection, real-time telemetry, and adaptive defenses for detecting and remediating cybersecurity threats.

 

Learning Objectives


By participating in this workshop, you’ll:
  • Build Morpheus pipelines to process and perform AI-based inference on massive amounts of data for cybersecurity use cases in real time
  • Utilize several AI models with a variety of data input types for tasks like sensitive information detection, anomalous behavior profiling, and digital fingerprinting
  • Leverage key components of the Morpheus AI framework, including the Morpheus SDK and command-line interface (CLI), and NVIDIA Triton™ Inference Server
