AI Integration in Next-Generation Cybersecurity Operations

The University of Guelph and eSentire are partnering to improve how cybersecurity teams use AI. The project focuses on:
– Securing AI-generated code – Identifying and fixing new types of security risks introduced by tools like ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot.
– Enhancing Security Operations Centres (SOCs) – Automating repetitive analyst tasks so teams can focus on critical threats.
This work will help Canadian organisations detect threats faster, reduce breach risks, and create new high-skill cybersecurity jobs. Two Mitacs interns will gain practical experience working with industry and academic experts on cutting-edge AI security solutions.
