Impressed with how smart Artificial Intelligence is? Now imagine it has bad intentions and no rules. That is what hackers are using it for today.
Artificial intelligence has become a very powerful tool for cybercriminals. It is able to mimic human behavior, bypass basic defenses, and even launch sophisticated attacks. For businesses, this means that traditional data protection tools are no longer enough.
One major concern: Phishing.
Phishing attacks – deceptive emails or texts designed to look legit, have evolved. What was once a clumsy message with typos, is now a convincing scam. With advanced algorithms, AI can analyze past communications generating highly convincing, typo-free emails that often mimic the tone, style and details of trusted colleagues.
