For years, artificial intelligence and machine learning were deemed emerging technologies with great promise for security, but with lack of clarity on how. Experts say 2023 could be the year we see it happen at scale.
Security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) will continue to exist but will be increasingly absorbed into other security platforms and the term will die out as it becomes baked into overall security. SOAR will converge with security information and event management (SIEM) and acquisitions will continue to contribute to vendor consolidation.
