AI and the future of phishing: what organisations need to know
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the cyber threat landscape, and phishing is evolving into something far more sophisticated than just mass email scams. AI is empowering attackers with the means to launch faster, smarter, and more personalised campaigns at scale.
What is deepfake social engineering and how can businesses defend against it?
Deepfake technology is rapidly evolving, making it easier for cybercriminals to manipulate digital content and deceive individuals and organisations. One of the most concerning threats that has emerged from this technology is deepfake social engineering – a sophisticated cyber attack method that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to create realistic fake audio, video, or images to manipulate and defraud targets.
How attackers are using AI to supercharge cyber threats
Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionising industries, and cybercrime is no exception. While organisations explore AI-driven security solutions, threat actors are leveraging the same technology to enhance their attacks—making them faster, more sophisticated, and more targeted than ever before.
Comprehensive AI Risk Assessments: Enhancing Cyber security & Compliance for business success
In today’s digital-first world, adopting artificial intelligence (AI) brings remarkable benefits, but it also introduces significant cyber security and compliance risks. To help mitigate these risks and align with AI governance best practices, a comprehensive AI risk assessment is crucial. This strategic approach not only enhances cyber resilience but also ensures your organisation meets regulatory compliance standards like GDPR, NIS2, and DORA. Here’s how your company can implement an effective AI risk assessment framework to secure a leading position in ethical AI adoption and risk management.

The dangers of AI-Driven threat actors in recruitment
In a recent incident, a prominent cyber security company discovered they had inadvertently hired a North Korean operative posing as an IT professional. This individual, using various AI tools, managed to infiltrate the company by joining as an employee, accessed its systems and attempted to plant malware. The incident has brought to light the increasing sophistication of cyber threats during the recruitment process. If a major cyber security firm can fall victim, other less security-savvy organisations face even greater risks and underscores the necessity for robust verification processes and heightened vigilance in recruitment.
