STRENGTHEN YOUR DEFENSE AGAINST AI-ENHANCED CYBER ATTACKS
Â
AI is rapidly becoming a powerful tool for cybercriminals, and its role in enhancing cyber-attacks has become a top concern for security leaders. Â According to a recent report, AI-enhanced attacks now rank as the number one cybersecurity threat for organizations globally, surpassing concerns over phishing, ransomware, and even supply chain vulnerabilities.
Â
Key Findings:
67% of Malaysian employees (based on PWC’s 2024 Global Digital Trust Insights survey of 3,876 business and tech executives, including respondents from Malaysia) are highly concerned about AI-enhanced malware and AI-enhanced phishing attacks.
AI’s advanced capabilities mean phishing emails can now be more targeted, personalized, and harder to detect, using detailed data from social media and internal company information.
 Â
 While security solutions are improving at detecting sophisticated malware, AI-enhanced phishing attacks pose a much bigger risk. These attacks are becoming harder to spot, but with new-school security awareness training, employees can learn to spot even the most sophisticated threats.
Â
If your employees adopt a "this is malicious until proven otherwise" mindset, they can help protect your organization from these evolving AI threats.
