Artificial Intelligence, Human, Decision Making, Cybersecurity Resilience, Business AnalysisAbstract
This review investigated the complex interplay of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with human decision in building cybersecurity resilience from a business analysis viewpoint. It investigated how AI can optimize human decision-making, escalate security measures, and guarantee swift action in response to any form of cyber-attack while factoring in the contribution of human judgment, intuition, and oversight into consideration for intense decisions. This review further investigated the impact of automation AI on information technology security risks in conjunction with human strategic management, focusing on their collective role in enhancing and sustaining cybersecurity resilience in organizations and across sectors. Existing credible journals and materials formed the datasets utilised for this review. Findings from examined journals and materials were presented thematically. Key findings revealed that the role of human decision-making in building AI cybersecurity resilience is critical. Stakeholders in AI cybersecurity need to properly integrate human factors to build concrete resilience against various cyber-attacks.
