This article provides a comprehensive exploration of AI-enabled cybersecurity, addressing the dual nature of AI within the cyber landscape. It enhances defensive capabilities while simultaneously offering tools for sophisticated cyberattacks. The paper develops the AI Cybersecurity Dimensions (AICD) Framework, a schema offering guidance for understanding the evolving landscape of AI-driven cyber threats. Distinct categories within AI in cybersecurity are examined, including defensive, offensive, and adversarial AI. The research provides examples of AI-driven cyberattacks, emphasizing the critical need for adaptive defense strategies to counteract these threats effectively. The motivations driving attackers leveraging AI, including economic, technological, and geopolitical factors, are analyzed to craft proactive defense measures. The paper calls for an interdisciplinary approach, integrating technical proficiency with strategic and ethical considerations, to bolster defenses against AI-driven cyberattacks.
