In today's digital age, online spaces offer incredible opportunities for communication, networking, and personal expression. However, they also harbor the potential for harassment and abuse, which can be particularly detrimental to women. Online harassment, including cyberbullying, stalking, and threats, can have profound emotional, psychological, and even physical consequences. To combat this pervasive issue and create safer digital environments, AI-driven cybersecurity solutions are increasingly playing a vital role in shielding women from online threats. This chapter explores the crucial role of artificial intelligence (AI) in addressing the pervasive issue of online harassment. The chapter makes a comprehensive survey and analysis of AI algorithms, natural language processing, and machine learning models to focus role of these technologies in reshaping the landscape of digital safety.
