Cyber Security Threats in the age of AI.

                         Cyber Security Threats using AI 

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence has transformed various aspects of our lives, by bringing efficiency. However, new cybersecurity threats have emerged with the increasing adoption of AI technologies. Here are some of the Threats:

AI Powered Malware:

Cybercriminals can leverage AI algorithms to develop malware that adapts and learns from its environment, making it challenging to detect and mitigate. To combat AI-powered malware, cybersecurity professionals need to employ AI-driven defenses.

Deep-Fake  Attacks:

Deepfakes, crafted using the latest generative AI technologies, create a new breed of deception. By leveraging artificial intelligence, they produce hyper-realistic videos, audio, and texts that can fool even the most discerning eyes, potentially resulting in multimillion-dollar losses for businesses.

AI-Assisted Software Engineering:

Social engineering attacks have long been a favored method for cybercriminals to exploit human vulnerabilities. With AI, social engineering attacks can become even more sophisticated and personalized. AI algorithms can collect and interpret vast amounts of data from social media, online profiles, and public records to craft highly tailored phishing or spear-phishing attacks.

Adversarial Attacks on AI Systems:

AI systems are vulnerable to malicious invasions, where malicious actors manipulate input data to deceive or manipulate the algorithms’ decision-making process. By making subtle changes to input data, adversaries can trick AI systems into misclassifying images, speech, or text, leading to potentially harmful consequences.
