New advancements in generative AI voice cloning come at a time when banks are looking for additional ways to authenticate their customers – and they’re choosing your voice. Banks adopted the principles of multi-factor authentication years ago. But continued cyber attacks aimed at providing SIM swapping services have increased the risk of assuming the credential owner actually possesses the mobile device. So, where do they go next to prove you’re you? Voiceprint.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the term on everyone's lips. As a powerful tool that can simplify our daily lives, it has become a technological revolution that impacts us all.

Cybersecurity has always been a complex field. Its adversarial nature means the margins between failure and success are much finer than in other sectors. As technology evolves, those margins get even finer, with attackers and defenders scrambling to exploit them and gain a competitive edge. This is especially true for AI.

In the 50th episode of the Trust Issues podcast, host David Puner interviews Justin Hutchens, an innovation principal at Trace3 and co-host of the Cyber Cognition podcast (along with CyberArk’s resident Technical Evangelist, White Hat Hacker and Transhuman Len Noe). They discuss the emergence and potential misuse of generative AI, especially natural language processing, for social engineering and adversarial hacking.

There has been widespread discussion about the potential impact of AI on society. While the UK Government has played an active role in shaping the conversation around the security and safety of AI, it has also demonstrated its intention to embrace AI where productivity and efficiency benefits may be found.

Software development teams face a constant dilemma: striking the right balance between speed and security. How is artificial intelligence (AI) impacting this dilemma? With the increasing use of AI in the development process, it's essential to understand the risks involved and how we can maintain a secure environment without compromising on speed. Let’s dive in.

In a landmark development, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has unveiled its pioneering Artificial Intelligence Roadmap, marking a significant stride towards incorporating generative AI models into federal agencies' operations. Under the leadership of Secretary Alejandro N. Mayorkas and Chief Information Officer Eric Hysen, DHS aims to harness AI technologies to bolster national security while safeguarding individual privacy and civil liberties.

Over the last year there has been a prevailing sentiment that while AI will not necessarily be replacing humans, humans who use AI will replace those that don’t.

Generative AI is an exciting technology that is now easily available through cloud APIs provided by companies such as Google and OpenAI. While it’s a powerful tool, the use of generative AI within code opens up additional security considerations that developers must take into account to ensure that their applications remain secure. In this article, we look at the potential security implications of large language models (LLMs), a text-producing form of generative AI.
