Recent advances in AI technologies have granted organizations and individuals alike unprecedented productivity, efficiency, and operational benefits. AI is, without question, the single most exciting emerging technology in the world. However, it also brings enormous risks. While the dystopian, AI-ruled worlds of sci-fi films are a long way off, AI is helping cyber threat actors launch attacks at a hitherto unknown scale and level of sophistication. But what are AI-powered attacks?

Protecting sensitive information has never been more critical, especially in today’s AI-driven world. As businesses increasingly leverage AI and advanced analytics, safeguarding Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Patient Health Information (PHI) is paramount. Data masking has become a cornerstone strategy, allowing organizations to securely manage and analyze data while significantly reducing the risks of exposure and misuse.

Cybersecurity leaders across all levels of government are growing increasingly alarmed by the rise of cyber attacks fueled by Artificial Intelligence (AI). Cybercriminals are now incorporating machine learning and automation into their strategies, significantly boosting the scale, efficiency and sophistication of their attacks. According to a recent survey of over 800 IT leaders, a staggering 95% believe that cyber threats have become more advanced than ever before.

The FBI issued an advisory on December 3rd warning the public of how threat actors use generative AI to more quickly and efficiently create messaging to defraud their victims, echoing earlier warnings issued by Trustwave SpiderLabs. The FBI noted that publicly available tools assist criminals with content creation and can correct human errors that might otherwise serve as warning signs of fraud.

Cyberattackers are exploring stealthier and more sophisticated methods to infiltrate cloud environments. From exploiting misconfigurations to leveraging stolen credentials, adversaries are skilled at evading detection. Cloud logs are invaluable in helping organizations identify potential threats before they can cause damage.
