Welcome to Information Security Media Group's Black Hat and DEF CON 2024 Compendium featuring latest insights from the industry's top cybersecurity researchers and ethical hackers, as well as perspectives from CEOs, CISOs and government officials on the latest trends in cybersecurity and AI.
Telegram deleted 25 videos the South Korean Communications Standards Commission said depicted sex crimes, and regulators reported that site administrators pledged a "relationship of trust." The agency said it intends to establish a hotline to ensure urgent action on deepfakes.
While the criminals may have an advantage in the AI race, banks and other financial services firms are responding with heightened awareness and vigilance, and a growing number of organizations are exploring AI tools to improve fraud detection and response to AI-driven scams.
The ability to create real-time deepfakes of trusted figures has transformed the landscape of corporate security threats. Brandon Kovacs, senior red team consultant at Bishop Fox, details how attackers can now clone voices and video in real-time, enabling new forms of social engineering and fraud.
Banks need to make changes to fraud programs to tackle mule accounts in the age of AI. Organizations need to move away from having one control to handle all suspicious accounts, said Anthony Hope, group head of AML, counter-terrorist financing, and fraud risk at NAB.
As deepfakes evolve, they pose significant cybersecurity risks and require adaptable security measures. In this episode of "Proof of Concept," Sam Curry of Zscaler and Heather West of Venable discuss strategies for using advanced security tactics to outpace deepfake threats.
Deepfake cases in Germany have seen a year-on-year increase of 142% - with various contributing factors. But what can be done to properly prepare for the threat that's here already?
In this webinar, we explore:
Current capabilities of deepfake technology - from an attack vs defence perspective;
Recent case...
Like security practitioners, cybercriminals want AI too. But in the AI-versus-AI cyber battle, the barrier for malicious actors "keeps getting lower and lower, while the barrier for defenders is getting more complex and more difficult," said Rick Holland, field CISO, ReliaQuest.
Pope Francis during a speech at the G7 summit in Italy called for a ban of autonomous weapons and urged world leaders to keep humans and ethics at the forefront of the artificial intelligence revolution, making him the first pope to address the annual meeting of the world's wealthy democracies.
While AI has spurred the growth of authentication controls, it has also enabled voice cloning and video deepfakes to become much more convincing. Fraud fighters are looking at adopting a multifactor authentication system using multimodal biometrics to fight against deepfakes.
Election security threats are real, and attacks will come from sophisticated nation-state threat actors who will hack victims and leak sensitive information paired with AI-generated deepfakes as part of disinformation campaigns across Western nations, social media companies told the U.K. government.
Robert Tripp, special agent in charge of the San Francisco Field Office of the FBI, details the effect of AI on cyber and financial crime, giving the example of how a few seconds of a blank call resulted in a woman losing a substantial sum to a hacker using AI voice cloning.
Telesign CEO Christophe Van de Weyer discusses why artificial intelligence is the best form of defense against AI-enabled cyberattacks, including more sophisticated phishing attacks, highly convincing deepfake audio and video, and fraudulent login attempts.
Generative AI has ushered in a new era of cybersecurity, presenting opportunities for innovation while also posing threats to AI models. "It's a curse and a blessing," and the state of cybersecurity is "vibrant" and experiencing a "golden age," said Dave DeWalt, founder and CEO, NightDragon.
Security leaders convened at the Cybersecurity Implications of AI Summit to explore AI's potential for defense while navigating privacy, compliance and ethical considerations. Key sessions covered safeguarding data privacy, Washington's AI Task Force and a tabletop exercise on deepfake attacks.
