Navigating Security Concerns: Microsoft Copilot's Integration with Microsoft 365

There are so many exciting things happening in the AI space currently. One of them is the integration of Microsoft Copilot, a generative AI, with Microsoft 365 applications. This fusion brings Copilot’s capabilities into the suite’s comprehensive office productivity tools to transform daily workloads and enhance productivity efficiency through the automation of mundane tasks, alongside offering insights and analyzing data. Key features include.

Elastic Security evolves into the first and only AI-driven security analytics solution

In our previous installation, we discussed the history of security information and event management (SIEM) solutions — from collection to organizational detections and finally to response and orchestration. Now, we are firmly in the SIEM 3.0 revolution and focused on applying generative AI to every applicable process in the security operations center with tremendous success.

AI-Assisted Phishing Attacks Are on the Rise

Threat actors are increasingly using generative AI tools to improve their phishing campaigns, according to a new report from Zscaler. “AI represents a paradigm shift in the realm of cybercrime, particularly for phishing scams,” the researchers write. “With the aid of generative AI, cybercriminals can rapidly construct highly convincing phishing campaigns that surpass previous benchmarks of complexity and effectiveness.

AI-driven cyber attacks to be the norm within a year, say security leaders

New research from Netacea reveals 93% of security leaders expect to face daily AI-driven attacks by the end of this year. Ransomware and phishing attacks are expected to be enhanced by offensive AI, but bots remain an underestimated threat. All respondents are benefiting from AI in their security stack, but adoption of bot management is lagging behind.

Safeguarding Your LLM-Powered Applications: A Comprehensive Approach

The rapid advancements in large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the manner in which we interact with technology. These powerful AI systems have found their way into a wide range of applications, from conversational assistants and content generation tools to more complex decision-making systems. As the adoption of LLM-powered applications continues to grow, it has become increasingly crucial to prioritize the security and safety of these technologies.

Snyk Code's autofixing feature, DeepCode AI Fix, just got better

DeepCode AI Fix is an AI-powered feature that provides one-click, security-checked fixes within Snyk Code, a developer-focused, real-time SAST tool. Amongst the first semi-automated, in-IDE security fix features on the market, DeepCode AI Fix’s public beta was announced as part of Snyk Launch in April 2023. It delivered fixes to security issues detected by Snyk Code in real-time, in-line, and within the IDE.

Enhancing Developer Efficiency With AI-Powered Remediation

Traditional methods of flaw remediation are not equipped with the technology to keep pace with the rapid evolution of code generation practices, leaving developers incapable of managing burdensome and overwhelming security debt. Code security is still a critical concern in software development. For instance, when GitHub Copilot generated 435 code snippets, almost 36% of them had security weaknesses, regardless of the programming language.

What is the Use of LLMs in Generative AI?

Generative AI is a rapidly maturing field that has captured the imagination of researchers, developers, and industries alike. Generative AI refers to artificial intelligence systems adept at concocting new and original content, such as text, images, audio, or code, based on the patterns and relationships learned from training data. This revolutionary technology can transform various sectors, from creative industries to scientific research and product development.

Generative AI and Cyber Security

There has been a lot of talk about Artificial Intelligence (AI) in recent years. It is certainly a polarizing subject. While it raises hopes about the future of technology and what humanity is capable of, it also raises questions around human control and technological determination. There are those who worry that Artificial Intelligence is going to ‘take people’s jobs’, or even take over the world, and that the world will end up like a dystopian ‘Terminator’ style film.

AI Voice Cloning and Bank Voice Authentication: A Recipe for Disaster?

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.
