Much of a human being's life is in constant interaction with systems that store and transmit information to provide some service that optimizes a process. The study of the different policies, tools, and actions that ensure the proper use of the information in computer systems - and often in an organization - is generally the objective of cyber security. The techniques that have been developed by artificial intelligence are now being implemented in a wide variety of fields, in which identifying patterns, learning about the environment, and making decisions are a clear need. This article presents a literature review of the different artificial intelligence techniques that are used in computer security, specifically with emphasis on telecommunication systems. The results that were obtained during the study and the applicability of tools for the control and prevention of anomalous behavior in information systems that are based on cybersecurity have been accepted by societies at a global level, and this has led to a growth in the research and development of autonomous intelligence in view to control and manipulate data, guaranteeing protection and storage. For this reason, given the need for safe storage systems, this document demonstrates the importance of implementing techniques that are based on artificial intelligence, as they are an effective mechanism for preventing and reacting to imminent risks, which makes it possible to comply with cybersecurity guidelines: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
