Experience in cybersecurity is no longer sufficient to protect organizations from the growing sophistication of AI-powered cyberattacks, Kaspersky warned over the weekend.
The global cybersecurity company highlighted how artificial intelligence is morphing phishing scams, making them nearly indistinguishable from legitimate communications, and leaving even seasoned employees vulnerable.
Kaspersky said cybercriminals are leveraging AI to personalize phishing scams, turning mass-produced, generic messages into targeted, highly customized emails. These emails mimic the tone, style, and content of legitimate communications by mining publicly available information from social media, job boards, and corporate websites.
Adding another layer of deception, cybercriminals are deploying deepfake technology to impersonate executives in video and audio messages. Kaspersky cited a chilling example of attackers using deepfakes during a video conference to convince an employee to transfer $25.6 million. Even the most vigilant employees are susceptible to these advanced attacks. Kaspersky said AI-generated phishing emails exploit human psychology, using tactics such as urgency, fear, or authority to bypass skepticism.
