On Monday, at the 2017 #IBM #InterConnectconference in Las Vegas, IBM unveiled a new, cloud-based cognitive assistant that it said will better help IT professionals secure endpoints like smartphones, laptops, and #IoT products. The assistant, which is powered by #IBMWatson, is formally known as the #MaaS360Advisor and is part of IBM's #MaaS360unifiedendpointmanagement ( #UEM ) platform offered through the #IBMCloud. According to an IBM press release, "The MaaS360 Advisor will use machine learning to analyze devices on the network and recommend policies, patches and customized best practices to better manage and protect them." Over 80% of companies are already using AI and cognitive solutions to more effectively insight the data collected from their endpoints, according to the IBM Mobile Vision 2020 Study, so it makes sense that they could be using similar tools to protect those same endpoints.
