2. Data analytics helps identify cybersecurity threats by
analyzing logs, network traffic, and user activity patterns. By
spotting unusual behaviors or access attempts, analysts can
detect malware, phishing, and other attacks early-before
damage occurs. Real-time data monitoring improves the
speed and accuracy of threat detection.

3. Using machine learning and analytics, cybersecurity tools
detect deviations from normal user behavior-like accessing
data at odd hours or logging in from unknown locations.
These anomalies often indicate compromised accounts or
insider threats, enabling faster response and mitigation.

4. Predictive models analyze past incidents to forecast future
threats. By recognizing patterns in historical data,
cybersecurity teams can proactively strengthen vulnerable
systems and prepare defense strategies—moving from
reactive to proactive security.

5. Tools like Splunk, ELK Stack, and SIEM solutions process
massive amounts of security data in real-time. These
platforms use analytics to filter noise, prioritize critical alerts,
and offer actionable insights-enabling quick decision-
making and reducing response time to cyber threats.

6. A leading bank used data analytics to detect fraud patterns
across millions of transactions. By implementing real-time
analytics, they reduced fraudulent losses by 60% and
improved customer trust. This highlights how data analytics
strengthens cybersecurity through actionable intelligence.
