Artificial Intelligence for Cybersecurity applications

About

Opens for applications on 2027-03-02. A European Commission call for proposals. Expected Outcome: Proposals are expected to contribute to one or more of the following: AI-driven solutions for real-time cyber threat detection; Advanced adaptive AI systems that evolve with dynamic cybersecurity challenges; Contribute to drastically reduce reaction time for the recovery of systems. Scope: Artificial Intelligence is increasingly utilised in cybersecurity for threat detection, incident response, and adaptive defence mechanisms. However, AI-driven systems themselves are susceptible to adversarial manipulation and bias. This topic aims to advance AI-based cybersecurity applications while ensuring that AI-driven solutions remain resilient, transparent, and compliant with regulatory frameworks such as the AI Act. In this context, the topic explores the role of all types of AI, including generative AI, in cybersecurity applications, including automated threat detection, adaptive cyber defence, and AI-driven cyber threat intelligence. Proposals should develop solutions for trustworthy AI in cybersecurity contexts including addressing adversarial AI risks, in compliance with the provisions of the AI Act. The topic is expected to: Develop AI-driven solutions and tools for
