The ongoing digitalization and expansion of digital information pose a serious concern for security operations centers. This concern is whether or not security operations centers can process and analyze the multiple information from systems and devices to prevent and detect security alerts of incidents. This paper analyses using artificial intelligence within a security operations center to overcome this concern. In the analyses, the challenges of using artificial intelligence within an organization are taken into account. The theoretical possibilities,including the challenges, are compared against the current situation of Dutch governmental organizations. This results in a gap analysis that can support the organizations to identify the next steps to address the above-mentioned concern.Show less
